Description Amirhossein Nikfal 2019-12-12 08:00:27 UTC
On CentOS 8, it is not possible to install ncview by yum. Other packages like ncl and conda have the same problem. Previously on CentOS 7 (with yum V3), it could be easily installed by the command below:

yum install ncview

I have also installed the EPEL repository for yum. It seems that EPEL in RHEL-8 lacks some packages.

Regards,
Amirhossein

I've requested the epel8 branch for ncview and will build it when ready.

scratch build: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=39581490

Since I also happen to be the maintainer for ncl and conda I can give you some updates on those as well, but in general each package is separate and a request should be filed for each individually.

ncl needs gdal. See bug #1771975 and #1741567

conda likely will be more complicated.  I'll poke at that again.
