Reasonable, sure, but does it fit your needs. That's a question we can't
answer for you.
Based on what is below, that is building a chroot environment, great if
that's what your after, not so great if you really want a systemic
installation.

Subject: [IBMiOSS] bpython
Hi all,
If I'm accessing IBMi via SSH and running bash 4.4 on the IBMi, would it be
reasonable to expect that the bpython interpreter would run ok?
I tried installing it into a venv and hit a snag as GCC isn't installed on
the IBMi.
I can see Aaron Bartell's instructions on how to install GCC at the bottom
of this post:
https://www.mcpressonline.com//programming/scripting/techtip-db2-adapter-for
-shells
which amounts to running:
$ cd /QOpenSys
$ git clone <git@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>git@xxxxxxxxxxxxx:litmis/ibmichroot.git
$ cd ibmichroot
$ ./pkg_setup.sh pkg_perzl_gcc-4.8.3.lst
Does this seem a reasonable thing to do?
thanks and regards,
Craig
