Description Frantisek Kluknavsky 2013-06-24 12:56:52 UTC 
Description of problem:
Developer Toolset v2.0 beta currently requires the user to subscribe to
the Optional channel solely for the mpfr-devel package, which is a
dependency for DTS v2.0 gcc.

Please move mpfr-devel to primary Server/Workstation channels for 6.5/5.10 to remove this extra step for DTS users.
Comment 2 Frantisek Kluknavsky 2013-06-24 14:27:23 UTC 
Streams required:
RHEL5: 5.9, 5.10+
RHEL6: 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5+
RHEL7: 7.0
Comment 5 Lubos Kocman 2013-07-02 12:55:15 UTC 
We've discussed this issue deeply within RCM.

It looks like the only way that this package can be installed is directly or by installing devtoolset-2-gcc-plugins-devel.

There is no requires for devtoolset-2-gcc-plugins-devel within the product. So you need to install it directly or trough devtoolset-2*

The common approach is that documentation contains "If you want to install -devel packages then you need to enable optional repo".

The resolution would be not to install devtoolset-2 trough following command:

yum install devtoolset-2*
