To clarify, colorgcc is just a wrapper for the real gcc, etc. The above symlinks in /usr/local/bin/* are found before the real gcc, etc. in /usr/bin/* (owing to the default path variable - PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games). The title and description of this bug should be ammended.
If my previous suggestion can be integrated in to the repository package, the sym-links should automatically get removed during uninstallation so that when the path is traversed to execute gcc, etc. the original ones are then found. -- 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
