    `yum` is for RedHat style Linux distributions that uses rpm-packages and not normally needed in Ubuntu. In Ubnuntu `apt` is used instead. It is not recommended for normal users to try to install RedHat (rpm) packages in Ubuntu. – Soren A Nov 05 '20 at 10:36
  • AWS EC2 need use yum to install s3fs in order to mount S3 bucket. So I must install yum. I try it successful. Thanks~ – 黃智祥 Nov 09 '20 at 10:28

    I don't think you really need yum to install s3fs. Ubuntu's official repository does have s3fs package which can be installed using `sudo apt install s3fs`. – Kulfy Nov 09 '20 at 11:05

I try it successful.

I must install rpm first：

sudo apt-get install rpm

And then install the yum：

sudo apt-get install yum

    I can't install YUM even after installing RPM. Did you add something in sources.list or some PPA? – Kulfy Nov 09 '20 at 12:29
