devtoolset for installation on Centos 7 about xmipp

Thanks @andschenk , I've assigned this to xmipp team. To my knowledge, while you get a better answer, I think 4.8 was compatible too.
We are about to release scipion3 and a new release of xmipp is coming together. It has been reviewed and I beleive is more compatible with newer versions of compilers and CUDA.

Thanks @andschenk for reporting.

Pablo is right, gcc-4.8 is compatible with the whole Xmipp (cuda and non-cuda code).

Additionally, if Xmipp is compiled without CUDA, any GCC should be compatible. To skip cuda compilation, set CUDA=False in scipionDir/config/scipion.conf.

Hi @andschenk

to the best of my knowledge, we do not have a list of dependencies explicitly stated anywhere.
I assume that you want to build Xmipp from scratch, and that we talk about the current devel branch of it.
Xmipp itself requires C++ 11 compatible compiler, such as GCC in version 4.8.1 or higher.
Things are getting more complicated if you also want to build CUDA code, as nvcc brings additional requirements on the compilers. You should be able to use CUDA 8 and higher.
So for e.g. combination of CUDA 8 and GCC, you have to use GCC 4.8.1 - 5.3.

Please let us know if this answers your question.

Thank you very much for the fast answer.
Yes this answers my question.
