For installing the system compilers gcc, g++, the install command is # yum install gcc-c++ → Provides version 4.8.5 : /usr/bin/{ gcc, g++ }.

Other options: 1. gcc53-c++-5.3.0-1.el6.x86_64.rpm → https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7S255p3kFXNRm9FVnZYUnhyZzg/view?usp=sharing&resourcekey=0-1N6zQa6Sbl_WycG1O9I7JA : Download and install : # cd Downloads/ && yum install ./gcc53-c++-5.3.0-1.el6.x86_64.rpm ..... Provides /usr/bin/{gcc53, g++53}.

  1. The devtoolset´s : https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/rhscl/devtoolset-6/ → # yum-config-manager --enable rhel-server-rhscl-7-rpms

Install gcc, g++ version 4.9.2 : # yum install devtoolset-3-gcc-c++

Note : You can have as many gcc/g++ versions as you want, installed at the same time. ( The system compilers are a must.)

CentOS / RHEL 7: Install GCC (C and C++ Compiler) and Development Tools - nixCraft
April 5, 2024 - To install all the packages belonging to a package group called “Development Tools” use the following command: # yum --setopt=group_package_types=mandatory,default,optional groupinstall "Development Tools" OR # yum --setopt=group_package_types=mandatory,default,optional group install "Development Tools" The yum has changed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7/CentOS 7. The package group “Development Tools”” has only the optional packages which by default doesn’t get installed. So we will need to pass the option --setopt=group_package_types=mandatory,default,optional to install the optional packages too. Type the following which command or type command/command command to see the gcc binary location.

r/redhat on Reddit: Installing GCC5.2.0 in RHEL 8.8
December 21, 2023 -

Hi All,

I'm trying to install the GCC5.2.0 in RHEL 8.8 as it requires by the tool that I'm using. I'm installing it manually using its source code that I got from here:
Index of /gnu/gcc/gcc-5.2.0

These are the commands I'm using:

tar -xvf gcc-5.2.0.tar.gz
cd gcc-5.2.0
./contrib/download_prerequisites
./configure --enable-checking=release --enable-packages=c,c++ --disable-multilib
make -j 4

However, I'm getting an error under make -j 4:

I've already installed "Developer Tools" and "gcc-c++" which suggested online but i'm still getting the error.

Any idea how to fix this?

Regards,
