Updating Linux

To avoid dependency errors, we recommend updating Linux before installing.

FME on Linux requires many third party packages. These dependencies must be satisfied when FME is installed. The easiest way to satisfy these dependencies is to install FME on a computer that is connected to the internet, allowing packages to be downloaded as needed.

It is possible, however, to manually prepare an offline computer for FME installation.

For more information:

Dependencies can be determined on-demand by using one of the following commands:

  • Ubuntu/Debian: dpkg -I <package_name>
  • Red Hat/Rocky Linux: yum deplist <package_name>
Warning  If you are accessing local mirrors of public repositories, ensure they match the version of your Linux.

Debian, Ubuntu

apt update && apt upgrade

RedHat, Rocky Linux

yum update

Proceed to Installing.
