"yum install phobos" doesn't work

[colling-spectra]

On CentOS 7, when I run "# yum install phobos", I get the error:

No package phobos available.
Error: Nothing to do

Do I need a certain repo? I can't find anything mentioned in the documentation. If it helps, I do have the EPEL repo.

I also figured I'd just try to install Phobos by cloning the git and compiling it myself, but I ran into even more issues trying to install the dependencies and compile.

Hello, sorry for not answering faster, but Phobos isn't available in the standard repositories.

If you can use CentOS 8, check the Ocean RPM-distribution repository (https://ocean.eupex.eu/) to get the Phobos RPM, otherwise for Phobos on CentOS 7, it will only be through by compiling the sources (sorry for the missleading information in the readme, we are in the process of updating it and our wiki to provide for information and easier usage of Phobos).

If you need help for compiling the project, or have any question, feel free to ask them, we would be happy to answer (and way faster this time, sorry again).

Hey @valeriyoann , I am working on hopefully getting this onto my CentOS 7 machine. Are there compile instructions anywhere?

Hello @JPGlaser, yes there are compilation instructions on this wiki page: https://github.com/phobos-storage/phobos/wiki/Developer-Quickstart

We have a few mirror repositories for different reasons, but the main one is on phobos-storage/phobos, and it has an extensive wiki there :)

We just released version 1.95, and we're working towards a 2.0, so if you have any feedback, don't hesitate to tell us!
