Download the SRPM for your package. Then rebuild on the CentOS machine and install the RPM.

[CentOS] Problems installing CentOS 8
I'm having a problem installing CentOS 8 from a USB drive. When the installer boots from the USB, it displays the language selection screen. After I select English and continue, the installer freezes. The USB drive flashes a couple times over the next minute or so, the stops. The mouse moves the cursor, but the installer is unresponsive to either selecting QUIT or HELP. I've tried both the default and the basic graphic install with the same results.

No. 8-stream is where packages will (eventually) be available to test software that’ll be part of the next point release of RHEL.

Pablo Greco (CentOS armhfp maintainer) provides some compatible builds (and following upstream epel, modified to be built for i686) on his personal space (unsigned packages !) here : https://people.centos.org/pgreco/wine32.el8/ Worth knowing that he also shares .spec here : https://github.com/psgreco/wine Just when writing this mail, I realize that while .spec is at correct 4.0.3 (so like Epel) the built packages are still at 4.0.2, so I guess he'll take care of that soon :) Cheers, -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | https://www.centos.org gpg key: 17F3B7A1 | twitter: @arrfab signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I'll certainly be giving that a try in the near future (possibly today). Took a brief look last night, using the USB input and only the input tab shows "monitor" items, but not the output tab. And I'm not sure that my analog input jacks on the computer are working, or at least I've never been able to get them to work (hence the USB audio thingie), though I'll take another whack at it and see if I can see what you describe.

You don't > mention any "playback" software. Yeah, I've done that with Audacity, when recording I can use its monitor function to feed audio to the computer's audio out. And I'll be doing that again in the not-far-distant future, as I have hundreds of LPs around here, at least some of which I'll want to digitize. I have one other suggestion from another responder to check out before I fall back to doing this. thanks for the idea, though!
