[Qgis-user] [Qgis-developer] QGIS 2.8.2 for RHEL/EPEL 7

[Tudorache, Marian]

Hi everyone,

I have tried to install QGIS 2.8.2 from the http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=9997800 and I got stuck with dependencies:

I started to look after rpm files where are those libraries and they are all over the place. I picked rpm.pbone.net.
Initially everything was good until I reached some version conflicts like qt4-core. For this specific I have to choose among: 4.8.6-2, 4.8.5-8, 4.8.5-1 etc.
Is any place where those dependencies are or should I continue googling foe each dependency?

Thanks,
Marian

Hi Dave et al,

Thanks, can you maybe also let us know how you would add this repo, so
we can maybe update the instructions?


To me it looks like the instructions here:

http://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html#rhel-centos-scientific-linux

are not working anymore for recent versions of RHEL/CentSO, but please
correct me if I'm wrong.

The instructions to enable use of the EPEL repositories can be found here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/FAQ#How_can_I_install_the_packages_from_the_EPEL_software_repository.3F

I'm not sure if we have an official 'maintainer' of QGIS for the
RedHat/.rpm based distro's currently.

For the sake of the project I think it is good if we have working
instructions for rpm based distro's.

I'm currently the owner/packager for EPEL 6/7. That's obviously not a "QGIS role" but a Fedora one.

From Alex I understood that Angelos is maintaining a build server, which
maybe also able to build rpm's?
https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_cross_distribution_howto

We should maybe also tell people if is too hard/impossible to install
QGIS or QGIS-server on a RHEL/CentOS version (as I understand on RHEL5.5
it's not doable because of a lack of certain Qt libs)..

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.
