* So Developer Toolset 7 has been installed on tb75-lilith, tb76-maggie, 
and tb79-poolux, and Jenkins jobs linux_gcc_release_64 
(<https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/plugins/gitiles/core/+/5b0b08e49ad344ceb043e0cdd1e45b0aea3f559c%5E!> 
"Better way of enabling Developer Toolset 7 for Jenkins' 
linux_gcc_release_64") and lo_tb_master_linux_dbg 
(<https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/plugins/gitiles/core/+/ab8454eb26f72f2d4081d90cb7e60e53e4a5590d%5E!> 
"Enabling Developer Toolset 7 for Jenkins' lo_tb_master_linux_dbg") have 
been adapted.

* This required --disable-werror for linux_gcc_release_64 (see the 
relevant part of 
<https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/plugins/gitiles/core/+/d3f2c61e3b9faf577f692ece76cd830f0f74b028%5E!> 
"Make Jenkins linux_gcc_release_64 pick up Developer Toolset 7"), and 
will likely require the same for further GCC-based Jenkins jobs that 
have not yet been updated (see below).

* This also required 
<https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/plugins/gitiles/core/+/f9ba4c2be1c1514553050fea37c48b757a68d4fd%5E!> 
"Generally set CCACHE_CPP2 for --enable-werror GCC" (which may have 
performance implications for Jenkins).

* Developer Toolset 7 has apparently not yet been installed on gandalf 
and vm139, which are used for Jenkins jobs lo_callgrind_linux, 
lo_daily_update_gandalf, lo_tb_ui_testing_gandalf, 
lo_tb_random_config_linux, and lo_tb_master_linux.  Once these have been 
updated (Cloph, can you do that please?), 
<https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/63991/> "Enabling Developer Toolset 
7 for Jenkins' remaining GCC master jobs" and 
<https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/64008/> "Revert 'Revert 'Enabling 
Developer Toolset 7 for Jenkins' lo_callgrind_linux''", respectively, 
can be submitted.

* Jenkins job internal_lcov_master tied to tb31 will need updating, too. 
  Whoever feels responsible for that job, can you do that please?
