Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install tbb on Fedora 34.

What is `tbb`

Threading Building Blocks (TBB) is a C++ runtime library that abstracts the low-level threading details necessary for optimal multi-core performance. It uses common C++ templates and coding style to eliminate tedious threading implementation work. TBB requires fewer lines of code to achieve parallelism than other threading models. The applications you write are portable across platforms. Since the library is also inherently scalable, no code maintenance is required as more processor cores become available. tbb 2020.3 7.fc34 x86_64 170 k tbb-2020.3-7.fc34.src.rpm updates The Threading Building Blocks library abstracts low-level threading details http ASL 2.0 Threading Building Blocks (TBB) is a C++ runtime library that abstracts the low-level threading details necessary for optimal multi-core performance.

We can use yum or dnf to install tbb on Fedora 34. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install tbb.

Install tbb on Fedora 34 Using dnf

Update yum database with dnf using the following command.

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

The output should look something like this:

Fedora 34 - x86_64 - Updates                    3.5 kB/s | 6.2 kB     00:01
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 - Updates             17 kB/s | 5.9 kB     00:00
Metadata cache created.

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

sudo dnf -y install tbb

Install tbb on Fedora 34 Using yum

Update yum database with yum using the following command.

sudo yum makecache --refresh

The output should look something like this:

Fedora 34 - x86_64                               20 kB/s | 6.6 kB     00:00
