<div>I’m starting to agree with you regarding Centos 8. This
experience matches other experiences with it. Although I like
it’s interface there seems to be serious, nefarious hidden
issues when I start to compile code. I understand why it ‘s
been abandoned, although I have no research to add to my
suppositions.</div>

<p>Like you I also used CentOS for years, but left several years
back for the Debian family. I've been quite happy since.</p>
<p>CentOS is still a good choice, I think, if you need a server for
just a few standard, unchanging services (DHCP, web server, mail
server etc). But for desktop work, with rapidly changing software,
you quickly find yourself chasing after packages that aren't
available from the standard repos.</p>

In the first place I feel that you have a mixture of version on

There are two additional tasks to do now. The first is to
discover whether the GDAL and GDAL-devel version 3.0.4 version
is the one to use for the compilation. Is it the most
up-to-date?<br>
<br>
Here you can look up the version:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/gdal/">https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/gdal/</a><br>
--> d'oh! where did it go? Someone must have removed it from
there ... :(<br>

I have just triggered to rebuild it on the server:<br>
<br>

<br>
Is there any reason to keep the outdated GRASS 7.7?<br>
<br>
> My other question revolves around gdal-config. There are
two versions of gdal-config: one simply called "gdal-config" and
the other called "gdal-config64" This machine (and all my
networked machines) are x86_64 architecture. Is the configure
script attempting to use one or the other and defaulting to the
"Error: cannot find gdal-config" option. This type of thing has
happened to me before and error messages can be notoriously
difficult to understand.<br>
<br>
I fully agree. There is no (obvious) point for me to have a
separate<br>
"gdal-config64" script.<br>
Please check from which RPM it originates, with<br>
<br>
rpm -qf /usr/bin/gdal-config64<br>
?<br>
<br>
But honestly, I am getting lost with Centos. That's why we
abandoned<br>
it earlier this year (which was an attempt after 10 years of<br>
Scientific Linux on our HPC infrastructure).<br>
<br>
However, I have good experience with Fedora and Ubuntu.<br>
