Re: gEDA-user: Further troubles with FC4 install



Thanks for the report.  I will put your notes about g++ into the Wiki
soon -- unless you get a wiki password and beat me to it!

Would you care to elaborate on what the library problem was?

Finally, FWIW, I have a private build of the installer on which
everything works *except* Icarus Verilog.  My version of Icarus is
still 0.8.1 (I belive).  Steve -- is this the latest, or do you have
something which works with gcc-4.0?
