# Fedora
Only [DKMS][dkms] style packages can be provided for Fedora from the official zfsonlinux.org repository. This is because Fedora is a fast moving distribution which does not provide a stable kABI. These packages track the official ZFS on Linux tags and are updated as new versions are released. Packages are available for the following configurations:
**EL Releases:** 21, 22, 23
**Architectures:** x86_64
To simplify installation a zfs-release package is provided which includes a zfs.repo configuration file and the ZFS on Linux public signing key. All official ZFS on Linux packages are signed using this key, and by default both yum and dnf will verify a package's signature before allowing it be to installed. Users are strongly encouraged to verify the authenticity of the ZFS on Linux public key using the fingerprint listed here.
**Location:** /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-zfsonlinux

**Fedora Package:** http://archive.zfsonlinux.org/fedora/zfs-release.fc22.noarch.rpm

The ZFS on Linux packages can now be installed with dnf on Fedora 22 and newer and yum on previous Fedora releases. Note that it is important to make sure that the matching *kernel-devel* package is installed for the running kernel since DKMS requires it to build ZFS.
Fedora 22 and newer:
```
$ sudo dnf install kernel-devel zfs
```
Fedora 21 and older:
```
$ sudo yum install kernel-devel zfs
```
## Testing Repositories
In addition to the primary *zfs* repository a *zfs-testing* repository is available. This repository, which is disabled by default, contains the latest version of ZFS on Linux which is under active development. These packages are made available in order to get feedback from users regarding the functionality and stability of upcoming releases. These packages **should not** be used on production systems. Packages from the testing repository can be installed as follows.
Fedora 22 and newer:
```
$ sudo dnf --enablerepo=zfs-testing install kernel-devel zfs
```
Fedora 21 and older:
```
$ sudo yum --enablerepo=zfs-testing install kernel-devel zfs
```
