I've been considering upgrading from my RH7.0 install to something a little less broken. How they could justify shipping a linux distro with a C/C++ compiler as broken as 2.96RH boggles the imagination. I tried Debian, but it's still unnecessarily steep learning curve with the ncurses install/update program left a poor taste in my mouth. I've been looking at the new Mandrake 8.0 for the i586.rpm and seemingly newer apps. Is GCC broke there too?
Any thoughts would be appreciated, although the home-brew compiled, encapped GCC-2.95.2 has fixed most of the compiler issues.
