RPM Installation
################
Using the Fedora COPR system, the OISF provides Suricata packages for
Fedora, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and Enterprise Linux rebuilds.
The benefit of using the OISF maintained COPR package repositories is
that the OISF maintains packages for all non-EOL Suricata versions for
each distribution version. For example, the OISF maintains Suricata 7
and Suricata 8 packages for RHEL 9 and 10.
