No problems here. The executable for gcc 3 is "gcc3" (or something like that), so unless you explicitly invoke gcc3 or do "make CC=gcc3 ...", nothing will change. Basically, notice how apt prompts to install extra packages, but doesn't try to remove any existing ones? They co-exist just fine (at least, they do for me... ;) -Andrew. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
