Hello,

I am trying to install RKWard to an RHEL workstation.  I tried

$ yum install rkward

but that did not work as it could not find the package in the standard
repositories.  The RKWard project page suggests that

You can also find the build (of all versions of RKWard) at koji and
other information regarding the package at pkgdb

Is there a way to install the package on RHEL or the above resources are
only built for Fedora?

Thank you.

Christos,

The EPEL is the yum based repo for RHEL and more info is here:

  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL

That being said, I did not see the package listed in Bodhi for RHEL, only for FC11 and FC12, which are the currently supported versions of Fedora. F10 went EOL in the past week.

The Bodhi link is here:

  https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/search/rkward

The same for Koji:

  http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=4881

The RKWard site does not list pre-built binaries being available for RHEL, only Fedora within the domain of RH distros:

  
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/rkward/index.php?title=Binaries_and_Build_Scripts

Thus, you will likely have to install from source for the time being. Information on that path is here:

  http://rkward.sourceforge.net/

HTH,

Marc Schwartz
