Well, so it’s easy, right?

    raise RuntimeError('gcc <= 4.8 not supported, please upgrade your gcc')
RuntimeError: gcc <= 4.8 not supported, please upgrade your gcc

BTW did you actually read the Installation requirements?

I noticed the problem. GCC versions on SSH connection with root.
When I run “npm install” command with user account, version 4.8 shows.

I entered the following command from the user account

scl enable devtoolset-8 - bash

And the version has changed.
Thank you
