Hi there,

First things first... I am not on the mailing list so please answer me
at pcyr AT po-box DOT mcgill DOT ca

I am running a Mandrake 6.0 system that came equipped with pgcc-2.91.66
19990314 (looks like a snapshot).  I am building a scientific
application using plenty of templates and also very computation
intensive.  I get some disturbing numerical errors especially when my
program is compiled with no optimization options.

Anyway, I wanted to upgrade to pgcc-2.95.3 hoping to solve my problem.
I uncompressed the binaries (as shown in the FAQ) and now everything is
under /usr/local/pgcc/...  and now I'm stuck.  How do I get get my
system to recognize that there is indeed a compiler there.  The pgcc
files from the distribution seem to be all over the place.

Anyone upgraded their Mandrake lately?

Thanks,

Pierre Cyr
