tag: Google software package

I have been using centos in my previous work. I suddenly installed the RedHat 5.4 system today. I want to use the vim tool. However, we all know that this tool is not installed, you will surely think of using yum for installation. However, the yum source provided by RedHat can be used only at the cost. Therefore, because we are a small-scale peasant class, we can't google it. It turns out that I have not met many predecessors, so I just clicked on a few links. Looking at other people's labor results makes me a little dizzy. I tried too many methods and finally got it done. It's not easy.
