Install groff-perl on Alma 9

I need to install groff-perl on AlmaLinux 9. I found the right package for Almalinux on the pkgs.org website. The installation instructions are as follows:

What I have forgotten to install?

dnf --enablerepo=devel install groff-perl
Error: Unknown repo: 'devel'

dnf-config-manager --add-repo https://repo.almalinux.org/almalinux/9/devel/almalinux-devel.repo
-bash: dnf-config-manager: command not found

Hi,

You need the following packages to enable the devel repo

 dnf install -y almalinux-release-devel

[root@alma9 yum.repos.d]# yum list groff-perl

As said, the package almalinux-release-devel provides file /etc/yum.repos.d/almalinux-devel.repo which describes the devel repo.

Its alternative, “manual” creation of that file – there is no command dnf-config-managerbut dnf has subcommand config-manager, so it would have been:

dnf config-manager --add-repo ...

but use of RPM package to get the file is more convenient (not just to install, but also to manage).
