download PDF
To enable support for Software Collections on your system so that you can enable and build Software Collections, you need to have installed the packages scl-utils and scl-utils-build.
If the packages scl-utils and scl-utils-build are not already installed on your system, you can install them by typing the following at a shell prompt as root: 
# yum install scl-utils scl-utils-build
The scl-utils package provides the scl tool that lets you enable Software Collections on your system. For more information on enabling Software Collections, see Section 1.6, “Enabling a Software Collection”.
The scl-utils-build package provides macros that are essential for building Software Collections. For more information on building Software Collections, see Section 2.12, “Building a Software Collection”.

Important

Depending on the subscriptions available to your Red Hat Enterprise Linux system, you may need to enable the Optional channel to install the scl-utils-build package.
