I find the instructions at http://blog.emptycrate.com/node/429 work fine. Specifically issuing the following commands manually once after installation. The fact these sym-links aren't automatically created during installation seems, to me, a defect in the installation package which could easily be fixed.
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/colorgcc /usr/local/bin/gcc sudo ln -s /usr/bin/colorgcc /usr/local/bin/g++ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/colorgcc /usr/local/bin/cc sudo ln -s /usr/bin/colorgcc /usr/local/bin/c++ or when run with root privileges during installation, the following single line would accomplish the same thing. ln -s /usr/bin/colorgcc /usr/local/bin/gcc; ln -s /usr/bin/colorgcc /usr/local/bin/g++; ln -s /usr/bin/colorgcc /usr/local/bin/cc; ln -s /usr/bin/colorgcc /usr/local/bin/c++ -- colorgcc should replace default gcc https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/30734 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
