不同应用可能需要不同版本的 gcc，而且可能遇到gcc 某些版本无法安装的情况，本文记录相关内容。

背景

安装cuda开发库之后，使用gcc编译会可能会报错要求gcc版本，如下表

CUDA version max supported GCC version
11.1, 11.2, 11.3 10
11 9
10.1, 10.2 8
9.2, 10.0 7
9.0, 9.1 6
8 5.3
7 4.9
5.5, 6 4.8
4.2, 5 4.6
4.1 4.5
4.0 4.4

我当前 gcc 的版本为 11.4, 但是需要安装 gcc 7的版本，但是安装时报错：

> sudo apt install gcc-7 g++-7

Package g++-7 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

Package gcc-7 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'gcc-7' has no installation candidate
E: Package 'g++-7' has no installation candidate

而且同时我需要兼容保留多个 gcc 版本.

gcc 版本降级

遇到上述错误，原因为：使用的apt镜像库没有这个软件。

解决方案

  • 添加 apt 库

    1
    sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list

  • 在最后添加

    1
    2
    # stable add by , in order to install g++7
    deb [arch=amd64] http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal main universe

  • 更新 apt 库

    1
    sudo apt update

  • 重新安装 gcc g++

    1
    sudo apt install gcc-7 g++-7

    此时已经可以安装了

gcc 版本维护

使用 update-alternatives 设置 gcc 和 g++

update-alternatives 是ubuntu系统中专门维护系统命令链接符的工具，通过它可以很方便的设置系统默认使用哪个命令、哪个软件版本。

  • 配置 gcc g++ 的版本优先级

sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-12 40 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-12
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-11 50 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-11
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-7 60 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-7

其中40 ，50 ，60是优先级数值可以自己设定，–slave 能保证 gcc 和 g++ 保持相同的版本。

  • update-alternatives 配置 gcc 版本
