# Using EuroLinux 7 from vaulted repositories | ||
|
||
## EuroLinux 7 EOL 2024-06-30 | ||
|
||
EuroLinux 7 reached its end of life on 2024-06-30. It means no further updates, | ||
including security updates, will be available. We strongly recommend upgrading | ||
to EuroLinux 8 or later as soon as possible. However, you may still need to use | ||
the older version for development, legacy, and compatibility reasons. | ||
|
||
## EuroLinux 7 vault | ||
|
||
Using the following gist is a straightforward way to access the EuroLinux 7 | ||
vault: | ||
|
||
<script src="https://gist.github.com/AlexBaranowski/4d1aab197164ec55e200c00ceb6884db.js"></script> | ||
|
||
|
||
Or manually add the following files to `/etc/yum.repos.d/eurolinux-7-vault-repos.repo`: | ||
|
||
|
||
```ini | ||
[eurolinux7-base] | ||
name=Eurolinux 7 Base Vault | ||
baseurl=https://vault.cdn.euro-linux.com/legacy/eurolinux/7/7.9/os/ | ||
gpgcheck=1 | ||
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-eurolinux7 | ||
|
||
[eurolinux7-updates] | ||
name=Eurolinux 7 Updates Vault | ||
baseurl=https://vault.cdn.euro-linux.com/legacy/eurolinux/7/7.9/updates/ | ||
gpgcheck=1 | ||
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-eurolinux7 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
|
||
The GPG key should be available in the system, but if it is not, you can add it | ||
with the following: | ||
|
||
|
||
```bash | ||
curl -o /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-eurolinux7 https://fbi.cdn.euro-linux.com/security/RPM-GPG-KEY-eurolinux7 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## EuroLinux 7.8 and 7.7 | ||
|
||
As a bonus, you could also use even older versions of EuroLinux 7.8 and 7.7, | ||
which contain only updates up to the last minor release of the given version. | ||
Sample content of the `.repo` files are below: | ||
|
||
For EuroLinux 7.8: | ||
```ini | ||
[eurolinux7-base] | ||
name=Eurolinux 7.8 Base Vault | ||
baseurl=https://vault.cdn.euro-linux.com/legacy/eurolinux/7/7.8/os/ | ||
gpgcheck=1 | ||
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-eurolinux7 | ||
|
||
[eurolinux7-updates] | ||
name=Eurolinux 7.8 Updates Vault | ||
baseurl=https://vault.cdn.euro-linux.com/legacy/eurolinux/7/7.8/updates/ | ||
gpgcheck=1 | ||
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-eurolinux7 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
For EuroLinux 7.7: | ||
```ini | ||
[eurolinux7-base] | ||
name=Eurolinux 7.8 Base Vault | ||
baseurl=https://vault.cdn.euro-linux.com/legacy/eurolinux/7/7.7/os/ | ||
gpgcheck=1 | ||
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-eurolinux7 | ||
|
||
[eurolinux7-updates] | ||
name=Eurolinux 7.8 Updates Vault | ||
baseurl=https://vault.cdn.euro-linux.com/legacy/eurolinux/7/7.7/updates/ | ||
gpgcheck=1 | ||
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-eurolinux7 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
|
||
## Removing subscription packages | ||
|
||
Since the EuroLinux 7 repositories were behind the paywall, you used to need | ||
the subscription that used `rhn_register` or `el_register` commands and ancient | ||
EuroMan service or local mirror of the system. EuroMan was sunsetted with | ||
EuroLinux 7 EOL. | ||
|
||
|
||
You can confidently remove the subscription-related packages (as long as you | ||
are not using custom Spacewalk/EuroMan Forman/EuroMan) with the following | ||
command: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
sudo yum remove -y rhn* subscription* | ||
``` |
