I did a “yum search libssh2-devel” it says no matches found. I did a “yum search libssh2” it says name matched and libssh2.
Where or how do install the -devel package for C8 ?
Thanks,
Jerry
One thought on - CentOS 8 Package Question
libssh2-devel was not shipped with RHEL. The package is built inside a module and the -devel is a ‘build-only’ tool which doesn’t get out of the build system. This is mainly because the libssh2 is only in there to make an app work which I think is being rewritten to use libssh but didn’t make it in time. [While libssh looks like it is the version you would replace with libssh2.. it seems to be the opposite.]

So at the moment, the package isn’t shipped.
