Dear Team,
Please advise if the below library is still required by ILMT (BESAgent) on RHEL7:
compat-libstdc+±33
We are planning to remove compat-libstdc++ from our dependency packages repository.
If the compat-libstdc++ is still required on RHEL7, then we need to add it as requirement to the ILMT package.
I don’t think it is required though, as I just tested it in on RHEL7 server and BESAgent seems to work. But advise whether this library is still required by ILMT (BESAgent) on RHEL7.
For RHEL8, no libraries are required as per documentation https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html-single/considerations_in_adopting_rhel_8/index#removed-packages_changes-to-packages
Thanks,

this is from rel7. I don’t see compat-listdc dependcies for besclient in rel5/6/7 or 8.
