Re: Xcode 2.5 doesn't install gcc 3.3 to the right place

I came to install gcc 3.3 into my Xcode 2.5 installation today as I
happened to need it. However, after installing, I noticed I still
couldn't use gcc 3.3

I have a system set up where I have Tiger and Leopard both installed,
as I need to test stuff in Tiger to make sure it runs. However, my
default boot volume is Leopard.

When I used "locate gcc-3.3" in Terminal it showed that the installer
decided to install it to "/Volumes/Tiger/usr/bin" instead of Leopard's
/usr/bin. Tiger IS the first partition on the disk, but as I said,
I am booted into Leopard so as far as the Installer is concerned,
Leopard is the boot volume.

When you install Xcode 2.5, *everything* it installs is placed in /Xcode2.5. You'll find its copy of gcc in /Xcode2.5/usr/bin/gcc. This allows Xcode 2.5 to be installed on the same volume as Xcode 3.0 without polluting all of the standard bin, include, and framework directories.
