[Opm] RHEL7 Repository

[Ilamah, Osho]

Hi,

Firstly, thank you all for the amazing work you have been doing.

I recently attempted to install the OPM simulator on RHEL machines. The
instructions provided were easy to follow and worked ok for RHEL6. For
RHEL7, "yum install opm-simulators-bin" failed, complaining about a missing
ert library (libert_utilxx). On careful inspection of the RHEL6  and RHEL7
yum repositories, I noticed that there is a
libert.ecl1-2016.10-0.x86_64.rpm package in the RHEL6 yum repository
package folder that is not present in the RHEL7 repository package folder
(there is libert.ecl1-2016.04-0.x86_64.rpm for 2016.04 but no
libert.ecl1-2016.10-0.x86_64.rpm for 2016.10 in
http://www.opm-project.org/package/redhat/7/).

As a workaround, I downloaded libert.ecl1-2016.10-0.x86_64.rpm from the
RHEL6 yum repository package folder, ran "yum localinstall
libert.ecl1-2016.10-0.x86_64.rpm" against this downloaded rpm, on the RHEL7
machine. This makes the libert_utilxx libraries available on the RHEL7
machine. I can then suceessfully run "yum install opm-simulators-bin" to
install the other packages from the RHEL7 repo on this machine.

I am reporting this, in the hope that you may be able to upload
libert.ecl1-2016.04-0.x86_64.rpm into the RHEL7 repository package folder
to permanently resolve this issue.

Thanks

Osho
