Installation

Quick Install (Recommended)

Install the latest release using the install script:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yum-bundle/yum-bundle/main/install.sh | sudo bash

This script automatically detects your system architecture (x86_64, aarch64, armv7hl) and installs the appropriate .rpm package.

Install via RPM Repository

For production environments or when you need version control, install from the official RPM repository:

# Add the repository
cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/yum-bundle.repo
[yum-bundle]
name=yum-bundle
baseurl=https://yum-bundle.org/repo/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
EOF

# Install yum-bundle
sudo dnf install -y yum-bundle

Benefits

• ✅ Version control — Can pin to specific versions
• ✅ Multi-architecture — Supports x86_64, aarch64, armv7hl
• ✅ Production-ready — Standard RPM package management
• ✅ Reproducible — Same version every time
