compat-libstdc++ missing for RHEL for z/Linux

Latest response

I have a old library that requires libstdc++.so.5

I tried to install it with

yum install compat-libstdc++
Loaded plugins: product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager

The package has a slightly different (specific) name. This command should get you the required shared object:

yum install compat-libstdc++-33

it does not work either yum install compat-libstdc++-33 Loaded plugins: product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager No package compat-libstdc++-33 available. Error: Nothing to do

Name and summary matches only, use "search all" for everything.

Oh, right. You need to enable the Optional repo first. I mistakenly thought the package was in the base repo.

Got it.

Thanks a lot
