How to install Xvfb (X virtual framebuffer) on Redhat 6.5? - linux

I have tried to install the Xvfb on red-hat 6.5 using
yum -y install xorg-x11-server-Xvfb
but it is not installed and it is giving msg that
No package xorg-x11-server-Xvfb available.
Error: Nothing to do
Plese help me to install Xvfb on Redhat 6.5 to remove the headless exception in the Applet.
Thanks.

The xorg-x11-server-Xvfb package is officially available from RedHat for RHEL 6 and RHEL 7 under the Optional channel (RHEL Workstation Optional, or RHEL Server Optional).
From the comments: To enable the optional repo: subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-7-server-optional-rpms and then you can install the package with yum install xorg-x11-server-Xvfb

I was able to download the RPM and then install it locally after reading this article
wget http://vault.centos.org/6.2/os/x86_64/Packages/xorg-x11-server-Xvfb-1.10.4-6.el6.x86_64.rpm
yum localinstall xorg-x11-server-Xvfb-1.10.4-6.el6.x86_64.rpm

Error unable to find the package name called v8-devel on RHEL8

I am trying to install v8-devel rpm package on RHEL 8.1 but unable to find it in all repositories of RHEL as well as in EPEL. I tried all the possibilities as shown below:
yum install v8-devel
yum install v8-devel
yum --enablerepo=* install v8*
yum search v8-devel
yum whatprovides v8-devel
dnf install v8-devel
dnf install v8-devel
dnf install v8*
i do have following EPEL for RHEL8 installed on my server.
epel
epel-modular
epel-source
I am also able to install similar package on RHEL 7 with the help of EPEL.
I am just curious to know whether name of (v8-devel) got changed for RHEL8 or not?
Can someone help me to find out v8-devel rpm and install it via EPEL on RHEL8.1.
Thanks in advance.
If we talk about R package the way is to run R shell and exec command:
> install.packages("v8")

Is any way to offline install Devtoolset-3 on CentOS 6.8?

The steps to install Devtoolset-3 at CentOS by yum are here.
sudo yum install centos-release-scl
sudo yum install devtoolset-3
scl enable devtoolset-3 bash
But I do not have the network access ability at my CentOS 6.8 server. (I can access network at other PC.)
Is there any Devtoolset-3 installer to be downloaded for offline installation?
I would like to upgrade binutils by installing Devtoolset-3. Is there any other way to upgrade binutils if I have no connection?

Installing RedHawk on CentOS7

CentOS 7 has been out nearly a year now. Has anyone installed RedHawk on CentOS 7? I do not see binaries available on the RedHawk download page. Has anyone successfully built it from sources? Are there issues?
I also do not find RPMs for omniORB-servers or omniORB-devel. Has anyone succeeded in building these on CentOS7?
Terry, Ive built redhawk yum repositories for CentOS7 which you can find below however a few things to note:
As Ryan pointed out, currently redhawk only officially supports CentOS6 and Ubuntu, these rpms are not offically built and distributed by redhawksdr.org. However if you do have any issues with them or find any problems please feel free to feed this back to me.
These RPMs were originally built prior to Fedora packaing omniORB 4.2. To account for this, I built and packaged omniORB 4.1 for CentOS7 which is the same version redhawk uses on CentOS6. My omniORB41 package and EPEL's omniORB (v4.2) package conflict so you cannot have the epel package installed. I have not tested redhawk with omniORB 4.2 which is why I packaged the older 4.1 version.
You can find the 1.10.1 yum repository here:
http://yum.axiosengineering.com/redhawk/1.10.1/el7/x86_64/
I will hopefully soon update with 1.10.2
You will also need the dependency repository here:
http://yum.axiosengineering.com/redhawk-deps/1.10/el7/x86_64/
To install via yum, create the file /etc/yum.repos.d/redhawk_axios.repo
With the following text:
[redhawk]
name=UNOFFICIAL REDHAWK 1.10.1
baseurl=http://yum.axiosengineering.com/redhawk/1.10.1/el7/x86_64/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
[redhawk-deps]
name=UNOFFICIAL REDHAWK DEPS
baseurl=http://yum.axiosengineering.com/redhawk-deps/1.10/el7/x86_64/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
Then from a terminal:
sudo yum clean all
sudo yum install redhawk* frontendInterfaces* bulkioInterfaces* GPP-*
REDHAWK is only officially supported on CentOS 6 and Ubuntu 14.04. omniORB should now be in Fedora EPEL 7:
https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/omniORB
I recently installed Redhawk 2.3.0 on Centos 7.9 by following these instructions https://redhawksdr.org/2.3.0/manual/installation/
The exact commands I used:
mkdir ~/Documents/Redhawk
cd ~/Documents/Redhawk
sudo yum install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
wget https://github.com/RedhawkSDR/redhawk/releases/download/2.3.0/redhawk-yum-2.3.0-el7-x86_64.tar.gz
tar xzvf redhawk-yum-2.3.0-el7-x86_64.tar.gz
cd redhawk-2.3.0-el7-x86_64
sudo yum install -y redhawk-release*.rpm
sudo nano /etc/yum.repos.d/redhawk.repo
Content of /etc/yum.repos.d/redhawk.repo:
[redhawk]
name=REDHAWK Repository
baseurl=file:///home/causer/Documents/Redhawk/redhawk-2.3.0-el7-x86_64
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-redhawk
Once the file is saved (ctrl+x, y), in the same directory as before:
sudo yum groupinstall "REDHAWK Runtime"
. /etc/profile.d/redhawk.sh
. /etc/profile.d/redhawk-sdrroot.sh
sudo /usr/sbin/usermod -a -G redhawk causer
sudo nano /etc/omniORB.cfg
sudo $OSSIEHOME/bin/cleanomni
sudo systemctl enable omniNames.service
sudo systemctl enable omniEvents.service
Copy redhawk.desktop to the desktop and run it (rpm -qpl on the redhawk-ide-xyz.rpm its near the bottom of the list)
sudo yum install java-1.8.0-openjdk-javadoc

I need libapr-1.so.0 rpm for RHEL v6.6

I was installing libapr-util1-1.3.9-4.1.x86_64 on RHEL v6.6 and it requires libapr-1.so.0 as a dependency. I've searched a lot and couldn't find.
The only rpm I found was vulture-common-3.2-185.1.x86_64.rpm which installs a lot of other packages as well that will conflict with already installed servers and software on my machine.
Does anyone know from where I can get this rpm? Or how to select specific part from the rpm to be installed?
For me yum whatprovides 'libapr-1.so.0' shows apr-1.3.9-5.el6_2.i686 is the package, on my CentOS 6.6.
For CentOS 7.7 I had the same error when trying to configure and compile mesos.
I had to install some additional libraries:
sudo yum install -y git apache-maven python-devel java-devel zlib-devel libcurl-devel openssl-devel cyrus-sasl-devel cyrus-sasl-md5 apr-devel subversion-devel apr-util-devel
For me yum install apr , on my CentOS 7.x.
Try to search for apr-1.4.8-7.el7.x86_64.rpm and apr-util-1.5.2-6.e7.x86_64.rpm
