Installing older version of GCC/C++ for Redhat Workstation v7.2

Latest response

Some of the development tools I use are validated to an older version of gcc/c++. While I doubt there will be issues with a newer version, I'd prefer not to chase them should it be the case.

When I run "yum install gcc-c++-4.8.2", I receive errors (see below). I've tried the suggestions provided in by the yum output to no avail.

Have also tried to install the library separately " yum install libstdc++-4.8.2-16.el7.x86_64". Yum reports it is already installed but it does not appear to be the case. I hesitate to downgrade as I'm unsure if that'd affect other OS tools.

Console output:
