I need to install GDB 8.0 or above in my CentOS 7. My current version of gdb is 7.6.1.

I have followed the guide at devtoolset-7-gdb | Install HowTo:

1. yum install centos-release-scl-rh

2. yum --enablerepo=centos-sclo-rh-testing install devtoolset-7-gdb

but when I hit gdb -v, I get my old version: 7.6.1 and not 8.0.
