Trouble with yaml-cpp-devel dependencies on RedHat 8

[titan73]

Latest OR needs the yaml-cpp-devel dependencies.
I can't install it directly as I'm not root but just searching for the package gives nothing:

$ yum search yaml-cpp-devel
Last metadata expiration check: 0:02:10 ago on Wed 01 Oct 2025 07:56:21 PM CEST.
No matches found.

Does anyone has an idea why?

Wider search:

fwiw gemini says sudo yum install epel-release then sudo yum install yaml-cpp yaml-cpp-devel

[titan73]

I don't have epel available on my system. What is the version installed?
Is there an url when I can download (ideally with wget) the same version?

[maliberty]

You can get the source at https://github.com/jbeder/yaml-cpp and build it. It is only used in the 3dblox parser so any version that will compile should be fine.

It worked thanks.

Note I had this warning several times:

CMake Warning (dev) at src/odb/src/3dblox/CMakeLists.txt:13 (target_link_libraries):
  The library that is being linked to, yaml-cpp, is marked as being
  deprecated by the owner.  The message provided by the developer is:

  The target yaml-cpp is deprecated and will be removed in version 0.10.0.
  Use the yaml-cpp::yaml-cpp target instead.

This warning is for project developers.  Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.
