If you dig a bit deeper you'll see you only need it when there's something python that isn't packaged in a rpm for your os version. There's no rhyme or reason why RedHat did what they did re: python, or at least none that I've ever seen. You basically always need EPEL on rh-7 based os's. Things are a bit better with rh-8 based systems in that regard, but rh8 has some other nuances that bite some people. FWIW if it was me setting up a clean centos system, I'd use 8 just to get it over with and get more recent software...but 7 will keep working til 2024 when it goes end of life. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
