Nothing to do.
Complete!
Is it possible to change remmina to call the installed libgcrypt?

any other ssh manager to use on centos 8?

BTW: flatpak and snap didn't work either

You can't use CentOS 7 packages on CentOS 8. If you want to use the el7 version for something then you need to grab the SRPM and rebuild that using mock.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

I don't think Remmina exists in the official RHEL8 (CentOS 8) repos.
Can you clarify what you want to use it for?

Remmina is going to be built in EPEL. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1766280 there are some dependency problems hat have to be sorted out before the maintainer can build it. As far as I can tell eventually it will be in EPEL, but it isn't clear what the time line is.

Thanks for your reply.
I have used it on Centos 7 as a connection manager. It's like using mRemoteNG or MobaXterm on windows.
I guess I'll wait for the EPEL release :)
