How To Install wabt on Fedora 34

wabt is The WebAssembly Binary Toolkit

Introduction

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

What is wabt

WABT (we pronounce it “wabbit”) is a suite of tools for WebAssembly. These tools are intended for use in (or for development of) toolchains or other systems that want to manipulate WebAssembly files. Unlike the WebAssembly spec interpreter (which is written to be as simple, declarative and “speccy” as possible), they are written in C/C++ and designed for easier integration into other systems. Unlike Binaryen these tools do not aim to provide an optimization platform or a higher-level compiler target; instead they aim for full fidelity and compliance with the spec (e.g. 1

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

Install wabt 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                               20 kB/s | 6.6 kB     00:00
Fedora 34 openh264 (From Cisco) - x86_64        1.4 kB/s | 989  B     00:00
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64                       68 kB/s | 6.5 kB     00:00
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 wabt using dnf by running the following command:

sudo dnf -y install wabt

Install wabt on Fedora 34 Using yum

Update yum database with yum using the following command.

sudo yum makecache --refresh
