                <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Release Candidate&lt;/em&gt; versions are available in the testing repository for &lt;strong&gt;Fedora&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Enterprise Linux&lt;/strong&gt; (RHEL / CentOS / Alma / Rocky and other clones) to allow more people to test them. They are available as &lt;em&gt;Software Collections&lt;/em&gt;, for parallel installation, the perfect solution for such tests, and as base packages.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;RPMs of &lt;strong&gt;PHP version 8.5.11RC1&lt;/strong&gt; are available&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;as base packages in the &lt;strong&gt;remi-modular-test &lt;/strong&gt;for&lt;strong&gt; Fedora &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;43-45&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Enterprise Linux&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;≥ 8&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

	&lt;li&gt;as &lt;strong&gt;SCL &lt;/strong&gt;in &lt;strong&gt;remi-test&lt;/strong&gt; repository&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ℹ️ The packages are available for &lt;strong&gt;x86_64&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;aarch64&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;ℹ️ &lt;strong&gt;PHP version 8.3&lt;/strong&gt; is now in &lt;a href=&quot;https://news-web.php.net/php.internals/129723&quot;&gt;security mode only&lt;/a&gt;, so no more RC will be released.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ℹ️ Installation: follow the &lt;a href=&quot;https://rpms.remirepo.net/wizard/&quot;&gt;wizard&lt;/a&gt; instructions.&lt;/p&gt;

                <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Release Candidate&lt;/em&gt; versions are available in the testing repository for &lt;strong&gt;Fedora&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Enterprise Linux&lt;/strong&gt; (RHEL / CentOS / Alma / Rocky and other clones) to allow more people to test them. They are available as &lt;em&gt;Software Collections&lt;/em&gt;, for parallel installation, the perfect solution for such tests, and as base packages.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;RPMs of &lt;strong&gt;PHP version 8.5.10RC1&lt;/strong&gt; are available&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;as base packages in the &lt;strong&gt;remi-modular-test &lt;/strong&gt;for&lt;strong&gt; Fedora &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;43-44&lt;/strong&gt; and&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Enterprise Linux&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;≥ 8&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;as &lt;strong&gt;SCL &lt;/strong&gt;in &lt;strong&gt;remi-test&lt;/strong&gt; repository&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;RPMs of &lt;strong&gt;PHP version 8.4.25RC1&lt;/strong&gt; are available&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;as base packages in the &lt;strong&gt;remi-modular-test &lt;/strong&gt;for&lt;strong&gt; Fedora &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;43-44&lt;/strong&gt; and&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Enterprise Linux&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;≥ 8&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;as &lt;strong&gt;SCL &lt;/strong&gt;in &lt;strong&gt;remi-test&lt;/strong&gt; repository&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ℹ️ The packages are available for &lt;strong&gt;x86_64&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;aarch64&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;ℹ️ &lt;strong&gt;PHP version 8.3&lt;/strong&gt; is now in &lt;a href=&quot;https://news-web.php.net/php.internals/129723&quot;&gt;security mode only&lt;/a&gt;, so no more RC will be released.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ℹ️ Installation: follow the &lt;a href=&quot;https://rpms.remirepo.net/wizard/&quot;&gt;wizard&lt;/a&gt; instructions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ℹ️ Announcements:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ℹ️ Notice:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;version &lt;strong&gt;8.5.10RC1&lt;/strong&gt; is in Fedora &lt;em&gt;rawhide&lt;/em&gt; for &lt;strong&gt;QA&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

	&lt;li&gt;EL-10 packages are built using RHEL-&lt;strong&gt;10.2&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;EPEL-10.2&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;EL-9 packages are built using RHEL-&lt;strong&gt;9.8&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;EPEL-9&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;EL-8 packages are built using RHEL-&lt;strong&gt;8.10&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;EPEL-8&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;oci8&lt;/strong&gt; extension uses the &lt;strong&gt;RPM&lt;/strong&gt; of the &lt;strong&gt;Oracle Instant Client&lt;/strong&gt; version &lt;strong&gt;23.26&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;on &lt;strong&gt;x86_64&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;aarch64&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;intl &lt;/strong&gt;extension uses &lt;strong&gt;libicu 74.2&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;RC version is usually the same as the &lt;strong&gt;final&lt;/strong&gt; version (no change accepted after RC, exception for security fix).&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;versions 8.4.19&amp;nbsp;and 8.5.4&amp;nbsp;are planed for &lt;strong&gt;March 12th&lt;/strong&gt;, in 2 weeks.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I also think that AI is terribly bad for what should be our priorities:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;AI doesn't stop wars&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;AI doesn't help with the climate crisis&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;AI doesn't solve the world's nutrition problem&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;AI doesn't reduce the hate between humans&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;AI doesn't&amp;nbsp;improve the distribution of wealth&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;AI doesn't enhance education&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;AI doesn't contribute to Open Source&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;AI doesn't create&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Everything on my website, in my repository, in my personal work, and my contributions to the Open Source community is the result of my skills and my experience. No AI is used; no AI will be used.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yes, I'm aware that AI may help in some projects (e.g., medical diagnostics, live translation), but I don't think the benefits outweigh the costs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;No AI&quot; src=&quot;https://blog.remirepo.net/public/icons/.NoAI_s.png&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yes, this is very political.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You can read &lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence_controversies&quot;&gt;Artificial Intelligence Controversies&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href=&quot;https://noailist.org/why-no-ai/&quot;&gt;Why No AI?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

        <title>📝 Redis version 8.10</title>
        <link>https://blog.remirepo.net/post/2026/07/31/Redis-version-8.10</link>
        <guid isPermaLink="false">urn:md5:89df26a66e941f5a6c1d58fddd58c6af</guid>
        <pubDate>Fri, 31 Jul 2026 09:27:00 +0200</pubDate>
        <dc:creator>Remi</dc:creator>
                  <category>RPM</category>
                          <category>Redis</category>
                  <category>RPM</category>
                <description>&lt;p&gt;RPMs of &lt;strong&gt;Redis version 8.10&lt;/strong&gt; are available in the &lt;strong&gt;remi-modular&lt;/strong&gt; repository for &lt;strong&gt;Fedora&lt;/strong&gt; ≥ 43 and &lt;strong&gt;Enterprise Linux&lt;/strong&gt; ≥ 8 (RHEL, Alma, CentOS, Rocky...).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;!--
&lt;p&gt;⚠️ Warning: this is a pre-release version not ready for production usage.&lt;/p&gt;
--&gt; &lt;h2&gt;1. Installation&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Packages are available in the &lt;strong&gt;redis:remi-8.8&lt;/strong&gt; module stream.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;1.1. Using &lt;strong&gt;dnf4&lt;/strong&gt; on Enterprise Linux&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;pre&gt;
# dnf install https://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-$(rpm -E %rhel).rpm
# dnf module switch-to redis:remi-8.10/common&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;1.2. Using &lt;strong&gt;dnf5&lt;/strong&gt; on Fedora&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;pre&gt;
# dnf install https://rpms.remirepo.net/fedora/remi-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).rpm
# dnf module reset  redis
# dnf module enable redis:remi-8.10
# dnf install redis --allowerasing&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You may have to remove the valkey-compat-redis compatibility package.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;2. Modules&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Some optional modules are also available:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/RedisBloom/RedisBloom&quot;&gt;RedisBloom&lt;/a&gt; as redis-bloom&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/RedisJSON/RedisJSON&quot;&gt;RedisJSON&lt;/a&gt; as redis-json&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/RedisTimeSeries/RedisTimeSeries/&quot;&gt;RedisTimeSeries&lt;/a&gt; as redis-timeseries&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;These packages are weak dependencies of Redis, so they are installed by default (if&amp;nbsp;install_weak_deps is not disabled in the dnf configuration).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The modules are automatically loaded after installation and service (re)start.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The modules are not available for Enterprise Linux 8.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;!--
&lt;h2&gt;3. Future&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Valkey&lt;/strong&gt; also provides a similar set of modules, requiring some packaging changes already applied in&amp;nbsp;Fedora official repository.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Redis&lt;/strong&gt; may be proposed for unretirement and be back in the Fedora official repository, by me if I find enough motivation and energy, or by someone else.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I may also try to solve packaging issues for other modules (e.g. RediSearch). For now, module packages are very far from Packaging Guidelines, so obviously not ready for a review.&lt;/p&gt;
--&gt;&lt;!--

&lt;h2&gt;3. Statistics&lt;/h2&gt;

                <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Release Candidate&lt;/em&gt; versions are available in the testing repository for &lt;strong&gt;Fedora&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Enterprise Linux&lt;/strong&gt; (RHEL / CentOS / Alma / Rocky and other clones) to allow more people to test them. They are available as &lt;em&gt;Software Collections&lt;/em&gt;, for parallel installation, the perfect solution for such tests, and as base packages.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;RPMs of &lt;strong&gt;PHP version 8.5.9RC1&lt;/strong&gt; are available&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;as base packages in the &lt;strong&gt;remi-modular-test &lt;/strong&gt;for&lt;strong&gt; Fedora &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;42-44&lt;/strong&gt; and&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Enterprise Linux&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;≥ 8&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

	&lt;li&gt;as &lt;strong&gt;SCL &lt;/strong&gt;in &lt;strong&gt;remi-test&lt;/strong&gt; repository&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ℹ️ The packages are available for &lt;strong&gt;x86_64&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;aarch64&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;ℹ️ &lt;strong&gt;PHP version 8.3&lt;/strong&gt; is now in &lt;a href=&quot;https://news-web.php.net/php.internals/129723&quot;&gt;security mode only&lt;/a&gt;, so no more RC will be released.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ℹ️ Installation: follow the &lt;a href=&quot;https://rpms.remirepo.net/wizard/&quot;&gt;wizard&lt;/a&gt; instructions.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <category>PHP</category>
                  <category>RPM</category>
                  <category>SCL</category>
                <description>&lt;p&gt;Version &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.php.net/archive/2026.php#2026-07-02-3&quot;&gt;8.6.0alpha1&lt;/a&gt; has been released. It's still in development and will soon enter the stabilization phase for the developers and the test phase for the users (see the &lt;a href=&quot;https://wiki.php.net/todo/php86&quot;&gt;schedule&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The RPMs of this upcoming new version of &lt;strong&gt;PHP 8.6&lt;/strong&gt;, are available in &lt;strong&gt;remi&lt;/strong&gt; repository for &lt;strong&gt;Fedora&lt;/strong&gt; ≥ 43 and &lt;strong&gt;Enterprise Linux&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;≥ 8 (RHEL, CentOS, Alma, Rocky...) in a fresh new &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.softwarecollections.org/&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Software Collection&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt; (&lt;strong&gt;php86&lt;/strong&gt;) allowing its installation beside the system version.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;As I (still) strongly believe in SCL's potential to provide a simple way to allow installation of various versions simultaneously, and as I think it is useful to offer this feature to allow developers to test their applications, to allow sysadmin to prepare a migration or simply to use this version for some specific application, I decide to create this new SCL.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I also plan to propose this new version as a &lt;strong&gt;Fedora &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;46&lt;/strong&gt; change (as F45 should be released a few weeks before PHP 8.6.0).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Installation&lt;/strong&gt; :&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;pre&gt;
yum install php86&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;p&gt;⚠️ To be noticed:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;the SCL is independent from the system and doesn't alter it&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;this SCL is available in&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;remi-safe&lt;/strong&gt; repository (or remi for Fedora)&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;installation is under the&lt;strong&gt; /opt/remi/php86&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;tree, configuration under the &lt;strong&gt;/etc/opt/remi/php86&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;tree&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;the &lt;strong&gt;FPM&lt;/strong&gt; service (php86-php-fpm) is available, listening on &lt;strong&gt;/var/opt/remi/php86/run/php-fpm/www.sock&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;the &lt;strong&gt;php86&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;command gives simple access to this new version, however, the &lt;strong&gt;module&lt;/strong&gt; or &lt;strong&gt;scl&lt;/strong&gt; command is still the recommended way.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;for now, the collection provides &lt;strong&gt;8.6.0-alpha1&lt;/strong&gt;, and alpha/beta/RC versions will be released in the next weeks&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;some of the PECL extensions are already available, see the &lt;a class=&quot;ref-post&quot; href=&quot;https://blog.remirepo.net/pages/PECL-extensions-RPM-status&quot;&gt;extensions status&lt;/a&gt; page&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;tracking issue&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/remicollet/remirepo/issues/342&quot;&gt;#342&lt;/a&gt; can be used to follow the work in progress on RPMS of PHP and extensions&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;the &lt;strong&gt;php86-syspaths&lt;/strong&gt; package allows to use it as the system's default version&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ℹ️ Also, read other entries about &lt;a href=&quot;https://blog.remirepo.net/tag/SCL&quot;&gt;SCL&lt;/a&gt; especially the description of &lt;a class=&quot;ref-post&quot; href=&quot;https://blog.remirepo.net/post/2022/02/17/My-PHP-Workstation&quot;&gt;My PHP workstation&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

        <title>📝 Redis version 8.8</title>
        <link>https://blog.remirepo.net/post/2026/05/23/Redis-version-8.8</link>
        <guid isPermaLink="false">urn:md5:88dd992d224dd5a1adfbadad929f090c</guid>
        <pubDate>Sat, 23 May 2026 16:38:00 +0200</pubDate>

                          <category>Beta</category>
                  <category>Redis</category>
                <description>&lt;p&gt;RPMs of &lt;strong&gt;Redis version 8.8&lt;/strong&gt; are available in the &lt;strong&gt;remi-modular&lt;/strong&gt; repository for &lt;strong&gt;Fedora&lt;/strong&gt; ≥ 43 and &lt;strong&gt;Enterprise Linux&lt;/strong&gt; ≥ 8 (RHEL, Alma, CentOS, Rocky...).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;!--
&lt;p&gt;⚠️ Warning: this is a pre-release version not ready for production usage.&lt;/p&gt;
--&gt; &lt;h2&gt;1. Installation&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Packages are available in the &lt;strong&gt;redis:remi-8.8&lt;/strong&gt; module stream.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;1.1. Using &lt;strong&gt;dnf4&lt;/strong&gt; on Enterprise Linux&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;pre&gt;
# dnf install https://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-$(rpm -E %rhel).rpm
# dnf module switch-to redis:remi-8.8/common&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;1.2. Using &lt;strong&gt;dnf5&lt;/strong&gt; on Fedora&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;pre&gt;
# dnf install https://rpms.remirepo.net/fedora/remi-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).rpm
# dnf module reset  redis
# dnf module enable redis:remi-8.8
# dnf install redis --allowerasing&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You may have to remove the valkey-compat-redis compatibility package.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;2. Modules&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Some optional modules are also available:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/RedisBloom/RedisBloom&quot;&gt;RedisBloom&lt;/a&gt; as redis-bloom&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/RedisJSON/RedisJSON&quot;&gt;RedisJSON&lt;/a&gt; as redis-json&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/RedisTimeSeries/RedisTimeSeries/&quot;&gt;RedisTimeSeries&lt;/a&gt; as redis-timeseries&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;These packages are weak dependencies of Redis, so they are installed by default (if&amp;nbsp;install_weak_deps is not disabled in the dnf configuration).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The modules are automatically loaded after installation and service (re)start.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The modules are not available for Enterprise Linux 8.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;!--
&lt;h2&gt;3. Future&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Valkey&lt;/strong&gt; also provides a similar set of modules, requiring some packaging changes already applied in&amp;nbsp;Fedora official repository.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Redis&lt;/strong&gt; may be proposed for unretirement and be back in the Fedora official repository, by me if I find enough motivation and energy, or by someone else.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I may also try to solve packaging issues for other modules (e.g. RediSearch). For now, module packages are very far from Packaging Guidelines, so obviously not ready for a review.&lt;/p&gt;

They are available as &lt;em&gt;Software Collections&lt;/em&gt;, for parallel installation, the perfect solution for such tests, and as base packages.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;RPMs of &lt;strong&gt;PHP version 8.5.7RC1&lt;/strong&gt; are available&lt;/p&gt;

                  <category>Valkey</category>
                <description>&lt;p&gt;RPMs of &lt;strong&gt;Valkey version 9.1&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;are available in the &lt;strong&gt;remi-modular&lt;/strong&gt; repository for&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Fedora&lt;/strong&gt; ≥ 42 and &lt;strong&gt;Enterprise Linux&lt;/strong&gt; ≥ 8 (RHEL, Alma, CentOS, Rocky...).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;!--
--&gt;

&lt;p&gt;⚠️ Warning: this is a pre-release version not ready for production usage.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;1. Installation&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Packages are available in the &lt;strong&gt;valkey:remi-9.1&lt;/strong&gt; module stream.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;1.1. Using &lt;strong&gt;dnf4&lt;/strong&gt; on Enterprise Linux&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;pre&gt;
# dnf install https://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-&amp;lt;ver&amp;gt;.rpm
# dnf module switch-to valkey:remi-9.1/common&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;1.2. Using &lt;strong&gt;dnf5&lt;/strong&gt; on Fedora&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;pre&gt;
# dnf install https://rpms.remirepo.net/fedora/remi-release-&amp;lt;ver&amp;gt;.rpm
# dnf module reset  valkey
# dnf module enable valkey:remi-9.1
# dnf install valkey&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The valkey-compat-redis compatibility package is not available in this stream. If you need the Redis commands, you can install the redis package.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;2. Modules&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Some optional modules are also available:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-bloom&quot;&gt;valkey-bloom&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;(Fedora and EL ≥&amp;nbsp;9)&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-json&quot;&gt;valkey-json&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-ldap&quot;&gt;valkey-ldap&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;(Fedora and EL ≥&amp;nbsp;9)&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;valkey-lua (always available)&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://valkey.io/topics/RDMA/&quot;&gt;valkey-rdma&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-search&quot;&gt;valkey-search&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;(Fedora)&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://valkey.io/topics/encryption/&quot;&gt;valkey-tls&lt;/a&gt; (always available)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;These packages are weak dependencies of Valkey, so they are installed by default (if&amp;nbsp;install_weak_deps is not disabled in the dnf configuration).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Modules are automatically loaded after installation and service (re)start.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;3. Future&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Valkey&lt;/strong&gt; also provides a set of modules, which may be submitted&amp;nbsp;for the Fedora official repository.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ℹ️&amp;nbsp;Notices:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Enterprise Linux 9.7 and 10.1, and Fedora&amp;nbsp;42 have Valkey 8.0 in their repository&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Fedora 43 has Valkey 8.1&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Fedora 44 will have Valkey 9.0&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Fedora 45 will have Valkey 9.1&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ℹ️ There is no security fix this month, so no update for &lt;a class=&quot;ref-post&quot; href=&quot;https://blog.remirepo.net/post/2025/12/19/PHP-version-8.1.34-8.2.30-8.3.29-8.4.16-and-8.5.1&quot;&gt;versions 8.2.30 and 8.3.30&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
