The thing is not that it can't be done (you could install a newer
devtoolset, v8 or v9, build R and use it), the thing is that it cannot
be distributed in EPEL, because we're allowed to build against a
devtoolset, but not depend on it, so the distribution would be broken
(you could not install packages unless you know that you need a
specific devtoolset, so you install and activate it).
