Description
## Expected Behavior
The documented gcc version, 7.6.0, is not available from conda-forge.
I was able to find `gcc_linux-64=7.5.0` through the conda-forge channel. With that TIGRE successfully built, so I recommend changing [the documentation](https://github.com/CERN/TIGRE/blob/master/Frontispiece/python_installation.md) to reflect that. The prior version I tried, 14.3.0, the version I got without specifying a version in my conda `environment.yml` file led to errors in the build process.
## Actual Behavior
## Code to reproduce the problem (If applicable)
This is the contents of the `environment.yml` file for the conda environment that enabled me to successfully install the python version of TIGRE.
```yml

Contributor guide
Research direction
Open Frontispiece/python_installation.md and compare its documented GCC version with the conda-forge version described in the issue. Update the installation guidance to reflect the working gcc_linux-64 and gxx_linux-64 7.5.0 packages, then check that the documented environment remains consistent with the provided example.
