gcc, mingw

Post by zninja » 2018/11/12 04:52:20

Is there are known plans when platform will be upgraded with newer version of libraries ?
gcc for example, mingw gcc... etc..
OS is stuck with 4.8.5 for a long time I think.

For its entire lifetime. Please see https://access.redhat.com/security/updates/backporting/ for information on backporting of security fixes and features in CentOS and RHEL. Additionally https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2074 may also be of use.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
Use the FAQ Luke

If it is just a newer compiler you are looking for, you could have a look at the devtoolset Software Collections.
