RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Bernd Finger 2023-04-25 10:04:00 UTC 
The compat-sap-c++ packages provide forward compatibility on RHEL versions which have been built with previous GCC versions. So SAP software which have been built with more recent GCC versions can be used on older RHEL versions. Example: RHEL 8 is based on GCC 8 and SAP HANA SPS06 has been built with GCC 10. So a library which contains the GCC 10 symbols is required in this case. This library is currently contained in a package named compat-sap-c++-10.

We should replace the compat-sap-c++-* packages by a compat-sap-c++ package without a version string in its package name. This package will also contain a file/link named /opt/rh/SAP/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 pointing to the library which contains the latest GCC symbols so that future versions of SAP software can access the symbols by RUNPATH, RPATH, or LD_LIBRARY_PATH without having to create a new link in a different directory.

Why?
- It will be easier to document and explain which package(s) must be installed for SAP software
- The installation of SAP software will be simplified

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Additional info:
We must ensure that all possible and supported combinations of SAP HANA and SAP NetWeaver/SAP ABAP Application Platform can be installed on a single RHEL system.
