Re: [gmx-users] Installation with CUDA on Debian / gcc 6+
Nah, which version of GCC CUDA supports depends on the CUDA version only. What's listed in that table is which GCC version a specific OS release uses by default.

Re: [gmx-users] Installation with CUDA on Debian / gcc 6+
Hi, Those are the compilers present on those OS distributions, and have been tested. Following that is the best path to an easy life. However, you can often use a gcc version other than the one installed with the OS, which you would need to do in various cases.

[gmx-users] Installation with CUDA on Debian / gcc 6+
Hi all, we try to install Gromacs with CUDA support on a Debian system. Cuda complains about the gcc 6.30 naively installed on Debian, since Cuda supports gcc only until gcc 5. The problem is that Debian removed packages for gcc-5, so installing an older gcc is more tedious. We understand that CUDA support for gcc strongly depends on the Linux Distribution, see https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-installation-guide-linux/index.html Therefore: Is there any workaround to compile Gromacs with CUDA under Debian with a gcc 6+ ?
