"The support package is not compatible with your version of MATLAB or operating system." for installing minGW in R2022a

With some help I got matlab installed in ubuntu. Works fine, however, I get the warning (words to the effect):
"You should install a C++ compiler to accelerate your matlab work"
during the install.
Ok, so I go into the add-on package, download the install script, run it per the docs, and I get
"The support package is not compatible with your version of MATLAB or operating system."
There is no workaround that I can see. I'm using the latest gcc 11.2.0 , compatible with ubuntu 22.04.
I can install minGW in this version of linux and it works. I just can't link it with matlab.
Is there any way to get the gcc 11.2 compiler working with Matlab?

gcc is open source. You can grab the source and modify the code so that it lies about which version it is in response to the --version command line query, so that MATLAB will accept using it.
Whether there will be any problems caused by using it instead of gcc 10.x is a different question.

I understand you are using MATLAB on Ubuntu 22.04 and are trying to install a C++ compiler for your work. Since it is unclear which version of MATLAB you are using, kindly follow the documentation link below to find supported compilers.
For R2022a:
For R2021b and earlier:
I would recommend you to install a supported GCC compiler. Once done, kindly follow the documentation link below to change the default compiler to the supported version.

The toolchain invokes the compiler executable with --version to get back the compiler version, and compares that to the list of supported versions.
