Hi,
I’m currently moving my CentOS 7 and Oracle Linux 7 servers to Rocky Linux 8. I’m looking for information about package repositories.
CentOS has a nice overview for available package repositories:
https://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories
Oracle Linux has the same information for available software:
http://yum.oracle.com/oracle-linux-7.html
Where can I find similar information for Rocky Linux? E. g. a detailed list of default repositories and available (official and third-party) repositories, with a concise explanation of the software it provides or the role it plays.
Cheers,
Niki
Due to similarity the third-party EL8 repos should be equally good for all EL8 distros (RHEL, Rocky, CentOS, …)
All base repos should be within:
dnf repolist all
That is essentially baseos
, appstream
, powertools
, and extras
.
Base repos provides some additional/third-party repo definitions. Check dnf list \*release\*
I ran that cmd and the following were enabled but the rest were disabled:
appstream
baseos
extras
Is that OK for a normal installation?
Yes. That is what I’d expect.
Hello. I was going through our current wiki and I thought we had published something. I decided to write something up real quickly here. I hope this helps.
