I see that gcc8 is no longer available (except as a cross compiler). I missed that. I did not have it locked on my system.
I use gcc8 with the NVIDIA NVCC compiler. NVCC is rather picky about which gcc version it will use. The docs have always suggested gcc8, and that has been working for me.
Is there a repository where gcc8 is still available? I did a search in openSUSE and did not find anything.

But aren't all those the cross compilers? I want a gcc8 that runs on x86_64 (e.g. Tumbleweed or Leap 15x) and that produces x86_64 (i.e. native) code. Or, to more precise, nvcc wants this.
I suspect that there was a cleanup of gcc and gcc8 went away.

The webui is just a little confusing as it sorts the packages by alphabet. There are like 8 pages of cross-* and then at the end you see gcc8 without cross.

I see that now. I was looking for Tumbleweed. But, I guess I can install, say, Factory to get gcc8 on Tumbleweed.
When it builds.
Or maybe use a Leap 15.x. Whatever makes nvcc happy.
At some point I guess I need to update nvcc. But I have been hesitant to do that. You know ... nvidia ...
