How To Install libseccomp-devel on Fedora 36

In this tutorial we learn how to install libseccomp-devel in Fedora 36. libseccomp-devel is Development files used to build applications with libseccomp support

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install libseccomp-devel on Fedora 36.

What is libseccomp-devel

The libseccomp library provides an easy to use interface to the Linux Kernel’s syscall filtering mechanism, seccomp. The libseccomp API allows an application to specify which syscalls, and optionally which syscall arguments, the application is allowed to execute, all of which are enforced by the Linux Kernel.

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

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

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

sudo dnf -y install libseccomp-devel

Install libseccomp-devel on Fedora 36 Using yum
