3. Installing the OPAE Software Package

Note: You can skip this section if you have already installed OPAE by answering Yes when the setup.sh script prompted you with the question: Do you wish to install the OPAE?

The host must have Internet connectivity to retrieve software packages. The installation steps require sudo or root privileges on your host. The following commands show installation as root.

Some packages require you to enable the EPEL repository. You enable the repository by installing the epel-release-latest package with the following command:
$ sudo yum install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-\
latest-7.noarch.rpm
or you may seek assistance from your system administrator.
Before you can install and build the OPAE software, you must install the required packages by running the following command:
$ sudo yum install gcc gcc-c++ \
cmake make autoconf automake libxml2 \ 
libxml2-devel json-c-devel boost ncurses ncurses-devel \ 
ncurses-libs boost-devel libuuid  libuuid-devel python2-jsonschema \
doxygen hwloc-devel libpng12 rsync python2-pip tbb-devel
$ sudo pip install intelhex
$ sudo yum install -y python36 python36-pip
This command only installs missing packages.
