Installing devtoolset-6 on CentOS 8

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Has anybody tried (and succeeded) to get gcc 6.3.1 (or devtoolset-6) to
work on CentOS 8?

In the Animation and Visual Effect industry, gcc 6.3.1 is still the current
recommended compiler (see www.vfxplatform.com), and is required to build
many plugins. Unfortunately, it is not a "minimum requirement"... It is THE
requirement.

So I tried to get it from the vault:
-- 
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo=
http://vault.centos.org/7.6.1810/sclo/x86_64/rh/
sudo dnf install devtoolset-6
--
but I get these messages:
--
Error:
Problem: package devtoolset-6-6.1-1.el7.x86_64 requires
devtoolset-6-runtime, but none of the providers can be installed

conflicting requests
nothing provides policycoreutils-python needed by
devtoolset-6-runtime-6.1-1.el7.x86_64
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to
use not only best candidate packages
--
All options fail.

I hate having to install something not officially supported anymore, but
still officially required for many current software.

Thank you.
