GCC compiler collection on Discoverer receives yet another update
It seems that July has been a busy month for many GCC code developers. The project released a minor new version of GCC, 13.2, which addresses problems discovered in the previously released 13.1 version. More information on the included fixes and changes can be found here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-13/changes.html
The code of 13.2 was compiled and installed in the public software repository to provide our users with the most up-to-date version of GCC 13. The build recipe the compilation process is based on can be found online:

It is noteworthy that the third-party libraries GMP, MPC, MPFR, and iSL, included in the installation, have been explicitly optimized to support AVX2 CPU SIMD instructions (core-avx2).
