Hi, I am new to rockylinux and RHEL distributions
I’m trying to install collectd rrdtool collectd-rrdtool collectd-web but they do not exists
I installed the “epel-release” package
Anyone has any hint ?
RockyLinux10
According to here, it’s in EPEL9 and EPEL9, but obviously since RHEL10 or Rocky10 is new, nobody has packaged it yet. https://pkgs.org/download/collectd
I guess you can make a package request to EPEL here: Requesting a new package in EPEL :: Fedora Docs
Either that, or you can build it yourself from say Fedora source rpms.

I see if I can dowload older versions
Installing EPEL9 or EPEL8 versions won’t be supported and may even have dependencies that may not install on Rocky 10. So it’s not advised.
Best route, make package request to EPEL and ask them to build.

ok, it is just in a vm that I’m using for exercises
I installed collectd and rrdtool from earlier EPEL with their dependencies
Ok 
Two more exercise for you then:
- Rebuild (for el10 target) the collectd packages from the src.rpm of collectd with
mock - Request a new package for EPEL
The #1 shows you how to get package “proper”, especially when dependencies have to change.
The #2 is how you help everybody (that desires collectd for el10).
