In order to install latest version of the Gnu compiler on your local machine:

• download sources (version 9 is in the snapshot subtree) from one of the mirrors at https://gcc.gnu.org/mirrors.html
• unpack the archive
• in the top directory downloads the pre requisite packages by executing

  bash$ contrib/download_prerequisites

• run configure ì, I use the following parameter, to generate just the g++ compiler

  ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc9 --disable-multilib --enable-languages=c++

• compile

  make

• install

  make install

• setup the proper PATH and LS_LIBRARY_PATH in your environment

  export PATH=/usr/local/gcc9/bin/:$PATH

  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/gcc9/lib64/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

  (possibly add the two lines at the end of your

  $HOME/.bashrc

The compilation process took about 1 hour on my i5 with 2 cores (make -j 4)
