How To Install PDAL-devel on Rocky Linux 8

In this tutorial we learn how to install PDAL-devel on Rocky Linux 8. PDAL-devel is PDAL development header files and libraries

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install PDAL-devel on Rocky Linux 8.

What is `PDAL-devel`

The pdal-devel package contains the header files and libraries needed to compile C or C++ applications which will directly interact with PDAL.

We can use yum or dnf to install PDAL-devel on Rocky Linux 8. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install PDAL-devel.

Install PDAL-devel on Rocky Linux 8 Using dnf

Update yum database with dnf using the following command.

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

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

sudo dnf -y install PDAL-devel

Install PDAL-devel on Rocky Linux 8 Using yum

Update yum database with yum using the following command.

sudo yum makecache --refresh

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

sudo yum -y install PDAL-devel

How To Uninstall PDAL-devel on Rocky Linux 8

To uninstall only the PDAL-devel package we can use the following command:

sudo dnf remove PDAL-devel
