I am new to Linux and CentOs. I was trying to install a package to build and run, but it complained of several missing packages. I managed to install most of the packages bar one. The package complains that -

Code: Select all

Required host tools not available: ['repo']

I am not sure what needs to be installed here, or which CentOs repository I need to search or enable for 'repo' package, or perhaps I need to do something different?

I tried

Code: Select all

yum install repo

and tried it with enablerepository with several repos in yum.repos.d but didn't seem to find a match.
