same I here. I still have few -gcc4 packages. If you need to install 
some -dev packages re-install their dependencies only from pure64 and 
then try to install -dev, it worked for me. I just downloaded required 
packages manually and used dpkg to install "downgrade" gcc4 versions; I 
am not sure if it is 'right way' but worked for me.

isn't there any better solution than reinstalling everything?
It would take a lot of time, since I don't have a fast connection at home.
(not to mention that gcc-4.0 compiled binaries are faster)

If you don't mind the occasional instability and can live without it
(i.e., your laptop is not your production environment), then go ahead
and stay with gcc-4.0 if you like. Otherwise, you are encouraged to
switch to pure64.

> what compiler is pure64 compiled with? 3.3 or 3.4?

Mostly 3.3, which is the standard compiler for sarge/sid. However, a few
important packages that don't work properly with 3.3 are being compiled
with 3.4 (namely, mozilla and derivatives).

If you have to ask then you should reinstall using the standard tree,
which uses gcc-3.3.

gcc-3.4/4.0 dumb question

2005-04-27 Thread the_nihilant
I didn't understand what I'm supposed to do.
I've been using gcc-3.4/4.0 sid for a long time on my laptop.

What should I do now ?
should I wait until the new gcc-4.0 tree is built?
or should I use the standard "pure64" tree?

what compiler is pure64 compiled with? 3.3 or 3.4?

thanks in advance

c.
