Update to GGC Binary Page
Colin Prior & Steve Christensen from UNIX Packages/Sunfreeware. We have been providing GCC as a binary for Solaris for over 20 years. Initially under sponsorship on www.sunfreeware.com and then more recently via our subscription site www.unixpackages.com We aim to make new binary versions available for any Solaris package that has a security issue within 24 hours of being notified. We are looking to update the link on the GCC Binary page http://gcc.gnu.org/install/binaries.html and note that it is not under CVS control So we are writing to you to request that it is updated. Please can you replace the link to Sunfreeware on your Installing GCC: Binary Page with UNIX Packages http://www.unixpackages.com Versions for Solaris 2.5 - 11 SPARC and X86 Many thanks in advance Steve & Colin Colin Prior UNIX Packages +1 206 310 4610 co...@unixpackages.com
RE: Please Update the Installing GCC: Binaries Page
Hello Gerald; Many thanks for updating the page to remove Sunfreeware and Blastwave. Is there a reason that you did not add a link to our new service at UNIX Packages www.unixpackages.com ? Clearly we would appreciate it if you could include it. Many thanks Steve & Colin.

Thanks for letting us know, and sorry for the late response. I have committed an update, and the Sunfreeware link is gone. Shortly I will remove this link for what we ship for older release branches, too. > BTW you may want to consider removing the Blastwave link as to all > intents and purposes that site has been dead for some time now. Done as well. Gerald
Update to Installing GCC Page
Hello GCC folks Please can you add: UNIX Packages www.unixpackages.com to your list of providers of GCC for Solaris. We have been providing pre-compiled GCC for over 20 years, initially as Sunfreeware and then transitioning to UNIX Packages in 2010. Many thanks Colin Prior UNIX Packages +1 206 310 4610 co...@unixpackages.com
Please Update the Installing GCC: Binaries Page
Dear GCC This is Colin Prior from Sunfreeware and UNIX Packages. Please would you be good enough to update http://gcc.gnu.org/install/binaries.html and add www.unixpackages.com We as you will see from the Sunfreeware site we have removed the majority of our packages including GCC (Solaris 2.5, 2.6 7, 8, and 9) over to the our new site. We may well be interested in doing some joint marketing with you. Let me know if that's of interest. BTW you may want to consider removing the Blastwave link as to all intents and purposes that site has been dead for some time now. Cheers Colin Colin Prior Unix Packages +1 206 310 4610 co...@unixpackages.com
