Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install perl-Filter on CentOS 8.
What is perl-Filter
Source filters alter the program text of a module before Perl sees it, much as a C preprocessor alters the source text of a C program before the compiler sees it.
We can use yum or dnf to install perl-Filter on CentOS 8. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install perl-Filter.
Install perl-Filter on CentOS 8 Using dnf
Update yum database with dnf using the following command.
sudo dnf makecache --refresh
The output should look something like this:
CentOS Linux 8 - AppStream 43 kB/s | 4.3 kB 00:00
CentOS Linux 8 - BaseOS 65 kB/s | 3.9 kB 00:00
CentOS Linux 8 - ContinuousRelease 43 kB/s | 3.0 kB 00:00
CentOS Linux 8 - Extras 23 kB/s | 1.5 kB 00:00
