Re: side effects after installing gcc-3.4.4.999

[Afflictedd2 <flethuseo at gmail dot com>]

I've got a simple solution  that I am not sure if it has been mentioned here.
take the link g++, and rename it g++.bak
and make a copy of the g++ you want to use g++-3 or 4 
and rename it g++

No more access denied problem.
