10.3 to 10.4 ... how was it?   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #132 of 212 |
Hi all,

Well looks like I will have to finally go from 10.3 to 10.4 as
some software I have been using is now 10.4 only (due to java
versions). So I imagine many of you have already done this
so I thought I would see if you had any problems, big or small,
and any tips. Should I just go ahead and shove the CDs in?
Should I expect previously compiled *nix based software to keep
running as usual (miriad, etc)?

thanks
Tyler

I also had no problems upgrading my desktop to Tiger. A few things moved around, and you'll also need to update your fink packages I think, but otherwise it...

Hey mate. I didn't have any problems except for a few bits of code that I have written that don't compile under gcc4.0. Fortunately, however, it preserves...
