216 - Wie lässt sich der LRZ Sync+Share-Client mit YUM installieren (Fedora)?

Tested with:

  • Fedora 41
  • Fedora 42


RPM-Repository

We recommend installing the packages from our S+S Linux repository. This way the LRZ Sync+Share desktop client software (*.rpm) can be installed with the package manager yum and kept up to date.


Setup via the command line

Administrator (root) privileges are required to run the sudo command.


Create the package source configuration file 'lrz-syncandshare.repo' under '/etc/yum.repos.d', e.g. as follows:

curl -fsSL https://sasrepo.nas.lrz.de/yum/lrz-syncandshare.repo | sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/lrz-syncandshare.repo


Reload the package sources:

sudo yum update


To install the LRZ Sync+Share client (package name: LRZ_Sync_Share):

sudo yum install LRZ_Sync_Share


Optional: Activation of test versions

The package source configuration file provides the following package branches:

  • stable : contains the recommended, current version of the LRZ Sync+Share client (default)
  • testing : contains the latest available (beta) version of the LRZ Sync+Share client (for enthusiasts)


To access the client packages under testing, modification of '/etc/yum.repos.d/lrz-syncandshare.repo' is required as follows (L4: enabled=0; L14: enabled=1):

/etc/yum.repos.d/lrz-syncandshare.repo
