Description Paulo Andrade 2023-04-05 20:53:15 UTC

It is a bit confusing that there is no proper way to make sure an
update from gcc-toolset-11 to gcc-toolset-12 is correct.

Several previous gcc-toolset-X are no longer available and/or now
use system versions.

It would be desirable to run:

# dnf install gcc-toolset-12-toolchain

to make sure every dependency is in place, and then run:

#scl enable gcc-toolset-12 bash

to make sure to be using the proper environment.

Comment 1 Marek Polacek 2023-04-05 21:18:41 UTC

I removed gcc-toolset-12-toolchain because it no longer made sense; the perftools packages were dropped from GTS.

$ dnf install gcc-toolset-12
should install all GTS 12 packages.

Thanks.
I understand now how to make sure to be using the proper environment!
