Broadly EPMs have been superseded by Ingredients and should be avoided. If you find you must install one, this guide aims to help.
Installing from GitHub repository
1. Clone from Github the Bazaar plugin repository (e.g. https://github.com/eprints/reports.git) to /opt/eprints3/lib/epm/ and fetch the required version.
cd /opt/eprints3/lib/epm/ git clone https://github.com/eprints/reports.git cd reports git checkout v3.2.1
2. Run the /opt/eprints3/ingredients/bazaar/tools/epm command to link the library from /opt/eprints3/lib/epm/ in the appropriate locations under /opt/eprints3/lib/
/opt/eprints3/ingredients/bazaar/tools/epm link_lib reports # EPrints 3.4.6+
Integration with the Archive
