I have been trying linking gcc on m1 mbp but I have tried and failed . gcc/g++ are in the same location as clang and I don't know how to override them . please help!

Solution

so after a long time of searching I found a blog and now I was able to change it

so if you have installed g++ and gcc via home-brew you can use this command

sudo ln -s /opt/homebrew/bin/g++-10 /usr/local/bin/
