We installed CentOS 7 (64bit) using this ISO, which we downloaded from http://vault.centos.org/7.1.1503/isos/x86_64/
Once we got the OS started, we executed yum update -y to update all installed packages that were older than the versions in the repositories.
After the update process was complete, we then tried to install terminator using yum.
The Problem
Executing yum install -y terminator resulted in an error:
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit, security Setting up Install Process Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: mirror.us.leaseweb.net * extras: mirror.us.leaseweb.net * updates: mirror.us.leaseweb.net No package terminator available. Error: Nothing to do
Solution
To solve the problem we needed to install the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository using yum install -y epel-release.
After the installation was done, we executed yum install -y terminator once more and the installation of terminator succeeded.
Example Logs
Following is the full log from the terminal, showing the correct completion of the installation
