I am getting following error in installing the older version of gcc(which I require unfortunately)
1 Answer
There is no official GCC 4.6 package for 16.04; the lowest version available is 4.7. If you really need 4.6, you will have to use Ubuntu 14.04, or find a PPA which provides it for 16.04.

I got this PPA link launchpad.net/~h-rayflood/+archive/ubuntu/gcc-upper . Now how to install it from this link?– EdisonJul 16, 2016 at 6:48

1@NaseerAhmed This PPA does not provide packages for Xenial. I also recommend you read about what PPAs are and how to use them (just Google it or something).– fkraiemJul 16, 2016 at 6:49

@KnudLarsen If you are going to add the Trusty repositorties, then you should definitely also add
