Dear George,

 

Thanks for the changelog, I’ll download and install 6.3 then.

Would I just download the rpm and install it, or would I have to download the source rpm as well? Brltty.com lists both, and so I don’t know how to go about it the right way.


You should not need the source rpm.  Try "dnf install Downloads/brltty-6.3-1.x86_64.rpm".   If there is an
error, post the error message here for advice.  There could be issues with a signature (if localpkg_gpgcheck
is set to True) or the version of a library (might require building the package on Fedora 33).
 

I’m sorry for so many questions that might seem dum, but I’m totally new to Fedora, thus, I’m totally new to the rpm package management system, dnf and yum are next on the list as well.


There are no dumb questions.   Linux has so many use cases and complexities that everyone runs into
problems sooner or later.
