EPEL 9 has two different release packages. If you are using RHEL 9, only install the epel-release package. If you are using CentOS Stream 9, install both the epel-release and epel-next-release packages. |
CentOS Stream 9
$ dnf config-manager --set-enabled crb$ dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel{,-next}-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm
RHEL 9
$ subscription-manager repos --enable codeready-builder-for-rhel-9-$(arch)-rpms$ dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm
Other RHEL 9 compatible distributions
EPEL 9 officially targets CentOS Stream 9 and RHEL 9. EPEL 9 packages will also likely work with other distributions that target RHEL 9 compatibility. We cannot list specific instructions for all such distributions, but in general the steps needed should look similar to the steps for RHEL 9. First enable the distribution’s equivalent of the CRB repository, then install the epel-release package.$ dnf config-manager --set-enabled crb
$ dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm
