Save application2000/73fd6f4bf1be6600a2cf9f56315a2d91 to your computer and use it in GitHub Desktop.
These commands are based on a askubuntu answer http://askubuntu.com/a/581497 | |
To install gcc-6 (gcc-6.1.1), I had to do more stuff as shown below. | |
USE THOSE COMMANDS AT YOUR OWN RISK. I SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING. | |
ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY. | |
If you are still reading let's carry on with the code. | |
sudo apt-get update && \ | |
sudo apt-get install build-essential software-properties-common -y && \ | |
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test -y && \ | |
sudo apt-get update && \ | |
sudo apt-get install gcc-snapshot -y && \ | |
sudo apt-get update && \ | |
sudo apt-get install gcc-6 g++-6 -y && \ | |
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-6 60 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-6 && \ | |
sudo apt-get install gcc-4.8 g++-4.8 -y && \ | |
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.8 60 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-4.8; | |
When completed, you must change to the gcc you want to work with by default. Type in your terminal: | |
sudo update-alternatives --config gcc | |
To verify if it worked. Just type in your terminal | |
gcc -v | |
If everything went fine you should see gcc 6.1.1 by the time I am writing this gist | |
Happy coding! | |

GCC 10.1.0 on Ubuntu 16.04 & 18.04 & 20.04:

To ivanmara555's comment using the ppa repository...
As of today May 25th 2020 on Ubuntu 20.04 your list of commands does not install the latest 10.1.0. Instead, it installs the older "10.0.1 20200416 (experimental) (Ubuntu 10-20200416-0ubuntu1)" -- because the older version is the only one there at that PPA site for release "Focal". The other package "10.1.0-2ubuntu1~18.04" is for "Bionic" not "Focal".
On 20.04, run the following commands today (May 25th, 2020) and it shows that none of the packages are 10.1:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
sudo apt update
sudo apt list -a gcc-10
If you can't find a PPA with "10.1.0", you'll have to build it from source. As a side note, the daily build of the next Ubuntu 20.10 does install 10.1.0.

I actually just tried this and it appears that gcc12 and 13 are only available as a package on Ubuntu 22.04 and later. If you want it on earlier versions you'll have to build it from source. 😭
Thanks @jasonbeach for your inputs..
thank you!
