The 4.9 compiler is from F21. So you could build a virtual machine of F21 to use for this, or do a minimal install just for this purpose. I can't remember the link, but Fedora keeps a snapshot of the last version of each version, so there is an F21 repository with all the software in it, current at the end of the version. Then just install from the cuda repository, and off you go. This would be a lot easier than trying to bolt gcc 4.9 onto the latest Fedora. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
