环境
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
问题
- We have been asked to determine if gcc and it's compiler is needed on our systems as it can be perceived as a security issue to have a compiler on a production system. If it is removed what would the impact be for our users and applications.
决议
- gcc is just for compiling applications and programs,
- Its absence does not hinder normal working of the system.
- There is no degradation in performance as well due to absence of gcc or other compilers.https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2835391
