Updated version of GCC 2.96-RH now available

An updated version of the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) is now available
for Red Hat Linux 7.2 and 7.3. This update addresses various issues filed
in bug reports.

For detailed information, refer to the bug IDs and package changelog.
To access a package changelog, type the following command at a shell
prompt, substituting name_of_file.rpm with the package filename:

rpm -qp --changelog name_of_file.rpm

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains
the
desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
