can I install gcc 4.3 in ubuntu12.10 on corei3 ?
 

Previously I have tested my program with fedora9 having gcc4.3 on core2duo processor. Now I want to test it on corei3 processor.But fedora9 is not installed on core i3.So I want to run my program in ubuntu12.10. But can I have the same 4.3 compiler installed with ubuntu12.10?

Welcome LQ.

1) ? May be you can use gcc-4.4 : $ sudo apt-get install g++-4.4

2) Building a gcc-4.3

>> using a more correct configure line that resembles a default Fedora9 build :
../gcc-4.3.4/configure --prefix=/opt/gcc43 --program-suffix=43 \
--enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-checking=release \
--with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --disable-libunwind-exceptions \
--enable-languages=c,c++

3) A gcc / g++ version 4.1.2 is available for the 32bits Ubuntu 12.10 (i686)
