Re: [MiNT] New RPMs to be uploaded shortly...

Hello Peter,

If you install the GCC 4.5.1 RPM, it will overwrite/upgrade, so that GCC 
2.95.3 is now gone, at least the C/C++ pieces.

The gcc2 packages will put the older GCC back in place with a slightly 
different name, requiring a user to specify it to use it.  This is one way 
other systems have multiple GCCs, there are some other ways of doing this, 
but with RPMs, I though this was the easiest.

So, GCC 4.5.1 would be default, with the possibility og GCC 2.95.3 being 
secondary.
