Installing G++4.8.5 or 4.9 on RHEL 8.0

Latest response

Hi,

Looks like the latest RHEL 8.0 comes with only GCC 8.2. I have application that has dependencies on GCC 4.8.5 / 4.9.

What is the best way to install the GCC 4.8.5 on the RHEL 8.0 ?

Since the devtoolset is moved away I don't fine the devtoolset-4 in appstream subscriptions.

Any pointers will be helpful.

Thanks,
Raj
