Installation of various common packages

Task 1: GCC

1. Install Build environment

   [root@master ~]# yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
   

2. Compile GCC

   [install@master ~]$ wget https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/gcc-15.1.0/gcc-15.1.0.tar.gz
   [install@master ~]$ tar xvzf gcc-15.1.0.tar.gz
   [install@master ~]$ cd gcc-15.1.0
   [install@master gcc-15.1.0]$ ./contrib/download_prerequisites
   [install@master gcc-15.1.0]$ cd ..
   

   Create build folder

   [install@master ~]$ mkdir build-gcc-15.1.0
   [install@master ~]$ cd build-gcc-15.1.0
   

   Configure GCC (without 32bit support)

   [install@master build-gcc-15.1.0]$ ../gcc-15.1.0/configure --prefix=/data/opt/tools/gcc-15.1.0 --disable-multilib
   

   Compile in parallel using -j 4. Note, this will take some time so do the next tasks in the meantime.

   [install@master build-gcc-15.1.0]$ make -j 4
   

3. Install GCC

   [install@master build-gcc-15.1.0]$ make install
   

4. Create Modulefile for GCC

   • create the file /data/opt/tools/modulesfiles/gcc/15.1.0.lua

Task 2: CMake

1. Download binary distribution from CMake

   [install@master ~]$  wget https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/releases/download/v3.31.7/cmake-3.31.7.tar.gz
   

2. Unpack binary release in /data/opt/tools/cmake-3.31.7

3. Create Modulefile /data/opt/tools/modulefiles/cmake/3.31.7.lua
