Issue
I have been assigned a project to install Mono and Python 3.0 on CentOS 7 minimal (terminal version). I cannot download the packages using gui or yum and I must use the RPM tool to install.
I downloaded the rpm using the 'wget' tool but when tried to install using 'rpm -ivh monodevelop.blah.blah.blah.rpm' It said I needed to install a big list of dependencies. What is the best way to install these dependencies without using yum? and where can I find them?
This is the rpm I was trying to install. http://download.mono-project.com/repo/centos7-stable/m/monodevelop/monodevelop-7.5.0.1254-0.xamarin.1.epel7.x86_64.rpm
I am a beginner in Linux and I'd really appreciate the help. Thanks!
Solution
if you really cannot use yum, then the only solution I see is downloading all dependencies; putting all in /some/directory, then:
rpm -ivh /some/directory/*.rpm
You can look at another answer of mine for how to download all the dependencies, but take care because that is rather advanced stuff: https://stackoverflow.com/a/50683836/2082964 .
