Thanks Well, libreoffice packages ARE in AppStream, and a 'yum list|grep ^libreoffice shows a bunch, but there's no blanket 'libreoffice' package, you'll need to install each component. This can be done from the command line or using the 'Software' GUI. I tried the 'yum module list' route, and there isn't a module for libreoffice, so installing each one seems to be the way at least for 8.0. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

The RHEL 8 Release Notes mention several package managers. Yum3, the older python-based version we have known, yum4, also python but based on the dnf backend, and dnf.

The main difference is : CentOS8 is a RHEL 8 stripped of any proprietary (licensed) stuff and built based on Red Hat's source rpms. CentOS Stream should be a mixture of Fedora (Developing ground for future RHEL technology - highly unstable) and pure CentOS. As per my understansing any future features for RHEL will be first deployed on CentOS Stream before moved to RHEL. Still, the above could have any gaps - so do not take anything for granted. I would recommend you to start either with CentOS 7.7 (quite stable and reliable) and later move to v8.
