Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] gfortran-4.2.1 build 5666.3 for Xcode 4.0.2 on Mac OS X 10.6.7

Hi,

       Here are my observations so far.

a. gcc-llvm-4.2 supplied with Xcode-4.0.2 package (paid version) appears to build all the libraries, just like the standard gcc-4.0.1 from the older Xcode-3.2.x series.

b. Xcode-4.0.2 has gcc-4.2.1 build 5666.3. There is no binary package for gfortran-4.2.1-5666.3. The closest available is gfortran-4.2.1-5664, which according some posts is as good as 5666, and you can install the older binary and get gfortran and gcc-4.2.1 to work without problems.

Perhaps in a while, the folks at research.att.com will release an updated binary package for gfortran-4.2.1-5666.3 to match the gcc-4.2.1-5666.3 release that comes with Xcode-4.0.2.

c. For the moment, perhaps it is better to stick to Xcode-3.2.6, if you just want the gcc compiler for building gnuradio, but don't want to take advantage of the newer Xcode-4.0.2 integrated IDE and its newer features.

I still haven't finished the manual build of gnuradio library dependencies. Right now, I'm down to the last leg, installing and patching GTK+ OS X libraries for gnuradio companion.
