RHEA-2015:2046 - Product Enhancement Advisory

Topic

New devtoolset-4 packages are now available as a part of Red Hat Developer
Toolset 4.0 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Description

Red Hat Developer Toolset is a Red Hat offering for developers on the Red Hat
Enterprise Linux platform that provides current versions of the GNU Compiler
Collection (GCC), GNU Debugger (GDB), Eclipse development platform, and other
development, debugging, and performance monitoring tools. The devtoolset-4
package is the main meta package of the devtoolset-4 Software Collection and
installs other Red Hat Developer Toolset 4.0 packages as dependencies.

This enhancement update adds the devtoolset-4 packages to Red Hat Developer
Toolset 4.0. These packages now provide the devtoolset-4(7) manual page.
(BZ#1240811, BZ#1264277)

All users who require devtoolset-4 are advised to install these new packages.
