    Tried several times, no luck - last log entries look like compiler errors (I watched the installer log during the first attempt and all dependencies at the beginning were installed OK with no errors, but the first attempt ended up with the same compiler errors):

    Did you notice the following part:
    "Symlinked the new gcc to /usr bin/gcc:
    cd /usr/bin
    mv gcc gcc-8
    ln -s /opt/rh/gcc-toolset-12/root/usr/bin/gcc gcc
    "

    Your log says you're still using gcc 8.5.0: "Compiler version "cc (GCC) 8.5.0 20210514 (Red Hat 8.5.0-18.0.2)""
