In this tutorial we learn how to install gpredict in Fedora 36. gpredict is Real-time satellite tracking and orbit prediction program

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install gpredict on Fedora 36.

What is `gpredict`

Gpredict is a real time satellite tracking and orbit prediction program written using the Gtk+ widgets. Gpredict is targeted mainly towards ham radio operators but others interested in satellite tracking may find it useful as well. Gpredict uses the SGP4/SDP4 algorithms, which are compatible with the NORAD Keplerian elements.

We can use yum or dnf to install gpredict on Fedora 36. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install gpredict.

Install gpredict on Fedora 36 Using dnf

Update yum database with dnf using the following command.

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

After updating yum database, We can install gpredict using dnf by running the following command:

sudo dnf -y install gpredict

Install gpredict on Fedora 36 Using yum

Update yum database with yum using the following command.

sudo yum makecache --refresh

After updating yum database, We can install gpredict using yum by running the following command:

sudo yum -y install gpredict

How To Uninstall gpredict on Fedora 36
