No known issues if running at least EPrints 3.4.6.
The RPM package elinks is no longer available in RHEL 8. elinks is probably no longer needed so if installing from source use the following YUM command line:
 
 
 
yum install libxml2 libxslt httpd mod_perl perl-DBI perl-DBD-MySQL perl-IO-Socket-SSL perl-Time-HiRes \
 
    perl-CGI perl-Digest-MD5 perl-Digest-SHA perl-JSON perl-XML-LibXML perl-XML-LibXSLT perl-XML-SAX \
 
    perl-LWP-Protocol-https perl-MIME-Lite perl-Text-Unidecode tetex-latex wget gzip tar ImageMagick \
 
    poppler-utils chkconfig unzip
 
 
 
 
 
==== Compatibility issues with XML::LibXLST ====
 
Sometimes the Perl module XML::LibXLST packaged in the perl-XML-LibXSLT package causes segmentation faults with the Apache httpd webserver. Therefore, it may be better to install this Perl module using CPAN (as the root user):
 
 
 
yum purge perl-XML-LibXSLT
 
cpan XML::LibXSLT
 
 
 
==== Missing Perl modules ====
 
There are a number of perl Modules that EPrints requires that are no longer installed by the dependencies list above. Some of these packages are available through YUM and can be installed as follows:
 
 
 
yum install perl-JSON perl-Unicode-Collate cpan perl-Pod-LaTeX
 
 
 
There are a few Perl modules not available through YUM, these can be installed through CPAN:
 
 
 
cpan TeX::Encode
 
cpan YAML
