GCC for Raspberry Pi

This repo store the binaries of GCC compiled for RPI. I compiled it for Raspberry Pi 2 B. I may compile it for other RPI if requested ... and if I have one.

How to install

Prerequisites

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install build-essential

Download the file:

wget https://github.com/inares/gcc-for-raspberry/raw/gcc-8.2.0/gcc-8.2.0-rpi2b-binaries.tar.bz2

Extract the file:

tar -C /usr/local/ -xjf gcc-8.2.0-rpi2b-binaries.tar.bz2 This will extract the files in /usr/local/gcc-8.2.0

Add it to PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH:

export PATH=/usr/local/gcc-8.2.0/bin/:$PATH export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/gcc-8.2.0/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
