TWiki Legacy - InstallingXRootD5
Use the official
XRootD 5 repos at CERN for the main code and the XRootD Ceph plugin. NB If you're not on a Quattor-managed VM, leave out the ".quattor" part of the following pathnames (but check/create an empty .pkgs file in the yum.quattor.repos.d directory for each repo).
