Georgi, thank you for you email.I gave it a try. On Stretch, GCC 8.1 compiled and installed cleanly. I put the path to the gcc binary (/usr/local/gcc-8.1.0/bin) in my PATH, and I compiled and ran my code without any other configuration. I expected some linking problems, but the binary dynamically links to the system libraries, and things are OK. Cool! Thanks again!

Previously I upgraded my Stretch to Testing (Buster), but I ran to some problems, and reinstalled the system back to Stretch. Could someone offer an advice on how to get a working GCC 7 on Debian Stretch, without upgrading to Testing?Another option could be to build GCC-7 yourself from source. Don't forget to use appropriate prefix when you run "configure". Kind regards Georgi
