elinks package is no longer available
The RPM package elinks is no longer available in RHEL / CentOS / Rocky 8 even with EPEL package repository. elinks is no longer needed so if installing from source use the following YUM command line:
dnf 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-MIME-Lite perl-Text-Unidecode perl-JSON perl-Unicode-Collate perl-Pod-LaTeX tetex-latex wget \ gzip tar ImageMagick poppler-utils chkconfig unzip cpan
Alternatively, for RHEL 8 you can enable the codeready-builder repository, which still has elinks available:
subscription-manager repos --enable "codeready-builder-for-rhel-8-$(arch)-rpms"
If you are running CentOS 8 (or Rocky 8) you can similarly enable the powertools repository:
dnf config-manager --set-enabled powertools
perl-IO-String package is no longer available
The RPM package perl-IO-String is no longer available in RHEL / CentOS / Rocky 8 even with EPEL package repository. You can enable the codeready-builder repository, which still has perl-IO-String available:
subscription-manager repos --enable "codeready-builder-for-rhel-8-$(arch)-rpms"
If you are running CentOS 8 (or Rocky 8) you can similarly enable the powertools repository:
dnf config-manager --set-enabled powertools
Sub-dependency packages perl-MIME-Types and perl-Digest-SHA1 are no longer available
perl-MIME-Lite package requires perl-MIME-Types package and perl-Apache-DBI requires perl-Digest-SHA1 package neither of which available on RHEL / CentOS / Rocky 8, even with EPEL repository enabled. You can enable the codeready-builder repository, which still has perl-IO-String available:
subscription-manager repos --enable "codeready-builder-for-rhel-8-$(arch)-rpms"
If you are running CentOS 8 (or Rocky 8) you can similarly enable the powertools repository:
dnf config-manager --set-enabled powertools
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 erase perl-XML-LibXSLT cpan XML::LibXSLT
If you have installed the eprints RPM either locally or though DNF (i.e. new YUM). You will not be able to remove perl-XML-LibXSLT RPM without it forcing EPrints to be uninstalled. Therefore, you should manually remove /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/auto/XML/LibXSLT/ rather than uninstalling the package before installing it using CPAN.
