LOL, this is a joke ? Right ?
So, everyone has has to symlink a dozen of binaries by hand into
a totaly different directory because someone is too lazy to do it
the right way ?
Look, i don't mind if you say that the symlinks belong to the package
managment. I don't mind if you say i'm not supposed to touch them
by hand. But there is a default which version of gcc should be used.
And if there is a default there should be a way to change _this_
default _with_out_ using a workaround.
