Installing the software

The IPbus software is packaged as RPMs, stored YUM repositories, for 64-bit x86 CentOS 7, and CentOS 8. The uHAL libraries in these RPMs use the following versions of BOOST and pugiXML (the default OS-provided versions):

CentOS 7

CentOS 8

BOOST

1.53.0

1.66.0

pugiXML

1.8

1.9

If you are using 64-bit CentOS 7 or CentOS 8, and want to use these BOOST and pugiXML versions, you should follow the “Installing via YUM” instructions.

If you need the uHAL libraries to use a different version of BOOST or pugiXML, and/or if you are using any operating system except for 64-bit x86 CentOS 7 or CentOS 8, you should follow the “compiling and installing from source” instructions.
