Re: [osol-discuss] nv93 available - thank you!
I think they'd be better off ditching Star Office from the install over the compilers for most people, but oh well. In my experience the same people who know that OpenOffice is free, and in most cases know OpenSolaris comes with StarOffice, do not know that the compilers are free to use. People use the 'pay for the compiler' argument against Solaris to this day, and Linux fanboys just love to trot this one out... They're the ones that know about OpenOffice/StarOffice, but don't know much about the developer environment. I realize this is a sad demonstration of massive communal ignorance, but hey that does go with being a fan of an OS that's a reinvented wheel. Having cc and CC and f95 in a common directory (/usr/bin) or something along those lines would go a LONG way towards stopping the $$ compiler false flagging that goes on.
