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

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.
