I DON'T THINK THAT WAS WHAT I ASKED, SINCE I'M NOT A
DEVELOPER. I WAS
MERELY INQUIRING IF IT WAS AN OPTION, IN CASE 4.0 HAS
FEATURES THAT ARE
IMPORTANT TO YOU.
> 1) AND TELL ME PLEASE, WHAT PACKAGES I SHOULD USE WITH
THE DAILY BUILD SNAPSHOTS:
> PACKAGE-2006Q4, PKGSRC-2006Q4 OR (CURRENT-)PKGSRC
(RESPECTIVELY: BINARIES, COMPILATIONS, COMPILATIONS)?
I DON'T RUN 4.0, SO I COULDN'T TELL YOU. I WAS MERELY
ASKING IF IT
WAS AN OPTION.
> 2) CAN I INSTALL OLD 2006Q4 BINARIES OR DO I HAVE TO
COMPILE FROM CURRENT PKGSRC?
I'M NOT SURE WHEN THE PKGSRC BEGAN BEING ADAPTED TO THE
PROBLEMS
CAUSED BY THE TRANSITION TO GCC4, BUT I BELIEVE THAT 2006Q4
COULD WORK.
BUT I'M ONLY GUESSING.
> 3) AND WHY THERE'RE NO "CURRENT" BINARIES? MY
CELERON 400 FLINT IS NOT A MATCH TO ATHLON/XEON/PENTIUM
4000+ 203MM HEAVY CRUISER CANNONS, NOT MENTIONING X2/X4 406
MM BATTLESHIP MONSTERS.
THAT I CAN UNDERSTAND. I USED A CELERON 600 BEFORE I
UPGRADED TO MY
CURRENT MACHINE. IT SEEMED THAT COMPILING WAS ALL IT EVER
DID. NOT
EXACTLY WHAT I GOT THE MACHINE FOR..

KIND REGARDS,
