Fedora 23 software packages not being installed
I had this same problem with a previous Fedora 22 install.
I just did a Fedora 23 server version install and picked the following software packages:
- basic web server
- common network manager submodules
- mail server
- mariadb
- editors
- system tools
- text based internet
But parts of the packages are not being installed. See below for example:
-bash: elinks: command not found
-bash: mutt: command not found
-bash: vim: command not found
When I do these commands ...
dnf info installed | grep elinks
dnf info installed | grep vim
dnf info installed | grep mutt
... it indicates elinks and mutt are not found but vim is.
however I cannot run vim because it is not found.
What is going on?
Welcome to ask.fedora. You can find out where the binary of any installed command by using
whereis -b
. As an example,whereis
itself is at /usr/bin/whereis. You might also want to check to see if the commands are on your path by examining the output ofecho $PATH
. Please edit your question by showing us your path, and any of those commands that aren't where they'd normally be.Those aren't the commands I asked you to run. I'd like to help, but you need to follow my instructions. And, you're doing things the hard way.
dnf info installed elinks
works just as well, and takes less time.Sorry. I was just editing my question to make it more readable before I noticed your comment.
path is /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin
whereis mutt
mutt:
whereis vim
vim: /usr/share/man/man1/vim.1.gz
whereis -b vim
vim:
whereis -b mutt
mutt:
