  45 GCC is distributed via <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/svn.html">SVN</a> and FTP
  46 tarballs compressed with <samp><span class="command">gzip</span></samp> or
  47 <samp><span class="command">bzip2</span></samp>.  It is possible to download a full distribution or specific
  48 components.
  49
  50    <p>Please refer to the <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/releases.html">releases web page</a>
  51 for information on how to obtain GCC.
  52
  53    <p>The full distribution includes the C, C++, Objective-C, Fortran 77, Fortran
  54 (in case of GCC 4.0 and later), Java, and Ada (in case of GCC 3.1 and later)
  55 compilers.  The full distribution also includes runtime libraries for C++,
  56 Objective-C, Fortran 77, Fortran, and Java.  In GCC 3.0 and later versions,
  57 GNU compiler testsuites are also included in the full distribution.
  58
  59    <p>If you choose to download specific components, you must download the core
  60 GCC distribution plus any language specific distributions you wish to
  61 use.  The core distribution includes the C language front end as well as the
  62 shared components.  Each language has a tarball which includes the language
  63 front end as well as the language runtime (when appropriate).
  64
  65    <p>Unpack the core distribution as well as any language specific
  66 distributions in the same directory.
  67
  68    <p>If you also intend to build binutils (either to upgrade an existing
  69 installation or for use in place of the corresponding tools of your
  70 OS), unpack the binutils distribution either in the same directory or
  71 a separate one.  In the latter case, add symbolic links to any
  72 components of the binutils you intend to build alongside the compiler
  73 (<samp><span class="file">bfd</span></samp>, <samp><span class="file">binutils</span></samp>, <samp><span class="file">gas</span></samp>, <samp><span class="file">gprof</span></samp>, <samp><span class="file">ld</span></samp>,
  74 <samp><span class="file">opcodes</span></samp>, <small class="dots">...</small>) to the directory containing the GCC sources.
