Issue
How do I install moreutils on the default image Amazon EC2 instance? The instances are built off of CentOS but presumably have their own packages repo since
sudo yum install moreutils
fails with
No package moreutils available.
What is the yum repo I need to install moreutils?
Solution
The epel repo is on the default Amazon server but in not enabled by default. You can use it as follows:
sudo yum --enablerepo epel install moreutils
Note that epel has a very old version of moreutils (0.40 when 0.61 is out), which does not include chronic.
