I'm trying to automate a reinstallation of a Centos box with a script, and everything is working well except that when scl is executed, the script terminates.

I use it to change the default g++ compiler to 8.

scl enable devtoolset-8 bash

How can I run scl without exiting my script?

Reset to default

For RHEL, use:

source /opt/rh/devtoolset-8/enable

The script enable simply sets environment variables like PATH, MANPATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc. so that the devtoolset-8 tools are used instead of those that are installed to default paths. It is functionally similar to scl enable but it will not terminate your script.
