SuSE 8.2 ships with a broken pre-release version of gcc3.3. Therefore, it is
recommended to upgrade. Information can be found here:
http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/gcc33_release.html
For example, pgAdmin3 does compile with the stock compiler, but it crashes at
startup as reported by Markus. With the new compiler, I could verify that
pgAdmin3 works like a charm.
There is still one problem: wxGTK xrc and stc do not compile under any version
of gcc3.3. I had to install wxGTKud RPMs from our RedHat 9 release...
It seems that daily users will not be able to compile pgAdmin3 from source
under a SuSE 8.2 platform. It was a quest to discover how to make it...
If anyone has a better solution, I will be vert glad to take it into account
and to modify our packages. Any idea?
