Hi, what versions, other than 4.8.5, of gcc are avaialble for EPEL-7?
My question is due to LyX that is starting the release procedure for 2.4 and there is a consideration for the minimum supported gcc supported.
The interest in gcc (actually g++) is due to the fact that the regex library in 4.8 has problems.
Regards,

There are publicly available builds of GCC 8 for CentOS:
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/sclo/x86_64/rh/devtoolset-8/
It still uses the old C++ ABI. <regex> and many other things will work, though.
Thanks, Florian

Can we use those packages as BR (build requirements) when building for epel-7?
That is my main concern. I would like to make lyx-2.4 available also for epel-7.
Thank you, :-)

Yes. Please check the mkvtoolnix package, for example. In short:
BuildRequires: devtoolset-7-gcc-c++ ... %build . /opt/rh/devtoolset-7/enable
Should be enough. I haven't tried devtoolset-8 yet. I'll try it when I do the next mkvtoolnix update.

Right.
Thank you very much to Florian and Dominik for the quick answer. :-)
