Project Introduction

EPEL(Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux) 是由 Fedora Special Interest Group 维护的 Enterprise Linux（RHEL、CentOS）中经常用到的包。

Usage

The following uses CentOS 7 as an example to explain how to use the epel image of this mirror site. This method can also be used for CentOS 8 or CentOS Stream.

First install epel-release from the CentOS Extras repository:

{{sudo}}yum install epel-release

Automatically replace with the following command: (from https://github.com/tuna/issues/issues/687)

{{sudo}}sed -e 's!^metalink=!#metalink=!g' \
-e 's!^#baseurl=!baseurl=!g' \
-e 's!https\?://download\.fedoraproject\.org/pub/epel!{{endpoint}}!g' \
-e 's!https\?://download\.example/pub/epel!{{endpoint}}!g' \
-i /etc/yum.repos.d/epel*.repo

The modification results are as follows: (for reference only, different versions may be different)
