problem to yum install graphviz on RedHat 7
Submitted by joe5 on Wed, 07/20/2016 - 17:16
I followed steps given at http://www.graphviz.org/Download_linux_rhel.php to install graphviz on my RHEL 7 server:
1. Save the content from http://www.graphviz.org/graphviz-rhel.repo into a local file: /etc/yum.repos.d/graphviz-rhel.repo
2. Ran: "sudo yum list available 'graphviz*'" - which poped up 20 lines of graphviz package lines each noted as "graphviz-stable"
3. Ran: "sudo yum install 'graphviz*'" - which takes "forever" to proceed, basically it hang there for an hour.
Could anyone suggest what should I do at this point?
Thank you,
joe

yum install - Error downloading packages
The "silent" yum problem was solved.
Now when I try - "sudo yum install 'graphviz*'"
it pops out multiple "Error" lines and suggest "You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem", which I did ... now it proceeded but end up with:
Error downloading packages:
gts-0.7.6-21.20111025.el7.x86_64: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.
I tried "yum --enablerepo=graphviz-stable clean metadata" and repeated the steps and got the same results.
Any advice please?

re: yum install - Error downloading packages
GTS is available on graphviz.org .. not sure why yum doesn't know that ...
