This would not solve the problem fully and yet create more maintainer
burden since the supporting libraries are still coming from distribution
underneath and this would create yet another combination for variable

I think container approach would solve this for us in a nicer way

Most supported distribution do support newer compiler packages and that’s a
better option since they would have tested it on that distribution to some
extent
