Report this bug to OpenSUSE. > > *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 35257 *** > Now this is great: I have found the latest classpath source, but: I have no clue where to have install put the stuff in - though that doesn't matter, because the install procedure needs several libraries in newer versions than I have installed on my system, and which do not seem to be available from SUSE. So I can either try to collect all that stuff from somewhere from the internet and install it manually, hoping it doesn't break my system, spending hours and hours of additional work with dubious prospect of success, or wait for SUSE to release gcc 4.3. All that because some not so smart people chose classpath over Sun's java libs for the sake of it being free, although it is not yet available in a version that indicates it would be stable, and that is at least 1.something. And all that is why? Because gcc 4.1 throws some errors on our code that works flawlessly with MS compilers and gcc 3, and that absolutely do not seem to be justified, and I wanted to make sure this problem is either fixed or still present in the latest gcc release in order to avoid remarks like "update to the latest compiler version". I would so love to use Linux, but as soon as you leave the beaten path of common distros and are not an expert of sorts, you are completely lost with this operating "system" (I miss the "system" in this stuff). When will you Linux geeks learn to get your act together, if you ever want to offer a true alternative to Windows? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36576
