I want to add gcc / g++ 2.96 to Fedora core 6 to support some old Red Hat linux programs, what is the best way to do it? I am thinking of this approach: Download the sources and build from scratch. I believe the "configure" script accepts an argument to add a prefix/suffix to commands so that gcc could be installed as something like gcc296. However, I looked at the gcc download sites and do not find gcc 2.96. I find only gcc-g++-2.95.3.tar.gz and gcc-g++-3.0.tar.gz. Where can I find gcc / g++ 2.96? If it is not available, should I use gcc / g++ 2.95.3? Make free worldwide PC-to-PC calls. Try the new Yahoo! Canada Messenger with Voice at http://ca.messenger.yahoo.com/
