In this case the platform chosen by default ia: Platform: x86_64-centos7-gcc9-opt To proceed with more comparisons, you are invited to select any item from the dropdown list under Release2 which contains only the releases that have common platforms with Release1: 98 It is also possible to choose among all available Releases from the dropdown list under Release1.
