</div></div>Hi Dave et al,<br>
<br>
Thanks, can you maybe also let us know how you would add this repo, so<br>
we can maybe update the instructions?<br>
<br>
<br>
To me it looks like the instructions here:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html#rhel-centos-scientific-linux" target="_blank">http://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html#rhel-centos-scientific-linux</a><br>
<br>
are not working anymore for recent versions of RHEL/CentSO, but please<br>
correct me if I'm wrong.<br></blockquote><div><br>The instructions to enable use of the EPEL repositories can be found here:<br><a href="https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/FAQ#How_can_I_install_the_packages_from_the_EPEL_software_repository.3F">https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/FAQ#How_can_I_install_the_packages_from_the_EPEL_software_repository.3F</a><br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
I'm not sure if we have an official 'maintainer' of QGIS for the<br>
RedHat/.rpm based distro's currently.<br>
<br>
For the sake of the project I think it is good if we have working<br>
instructions for rpm based distro's.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I'm currently the owner/packager for EPEL 6/7.

<br>
We should maybe also tell people if is too hard/impossible to install<br>
QGIS or QGIS-server on a RHEL/CentOS version (as I understand on RHEL5.5<br>
it's not doable because of a lack of certain Qt libs)..<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I believe that we could build QGIS 1.8 on RHEL 5 without too much problem. I'm currently only really interested in RHEL 6 and 7, but if there was interest in supporting QGIS 1.8 on RHEL 5, then I would be glad to do that as well.<br></div></div></div></div>
