Install Sympa distribution: RPM package

Currently, these YUM/DNF repositories are provided by volunteers.

Repository on Sympa-JA.org: Stable packages for RHEL/CentOS 6 and 7.
COPR sympa repository: Stable packages for Fedora/RHEL/CentOS.
COPR sympa-beta repository: Pre-release packages for Fedora/RHEL/CentOS.

If you have been using Repository on Sympa-JA.org, you are recommended to use it for the recent release. Otherwise, you are recommended to use COPR sympa repository.

If you wish to use pre-release (beta) versions of Sympa, use COPR sympa-beta repository which is compatible to COPR sympa repository.

Note:

Packages for RHEL/CentOS 5 will no longer be provided.

Requirements

Fedora, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6 or 7 or its clones. Among clones, at least CentOS 6 or 7 is reported working.
With RHEL/CentOS, add Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. It can be done by installing epel-release package. For more details see EPEL description.
On RHEL, in addition, the “optional repository” should be enabled: Some dependent packages are shipped in this repository.

Installing

Add Sympa repository.

Download a configuration file of either repository:
and save it in /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory.

Then update cache:
```
# yum makecache
```
or (if you are using DNF)
```
# dnf makecache
```

Install Sympa:

# yum install sympa

or (if you are using DNF)

# dnf install sympa

By the steps above, Sympa and dependent packages will be installed.

Upgrading

Update yum, dependent packages and then Sympa packages:

# yum update yum
# yum update --exclude='sympa*'
# yum update sympa

or (if you are using DNF)

# dnf update dnf
# dnf update --exclude='sympa*'
# dnf update sympa
