Hi, Officially we don't support this distro so there are no packages dedicated for this distriubution inour repositories. I haven't tested in on this distro, but I think @dakotarwilliams used to work on it (not sure). If you want to install it there you have 2 options:

  1. Try to install packages for RHEL (not recommended)
  2. Install from scratch (you can find out how to do it in Install.md)
