Tried to install FSR 7.6.2 on Rocky Linux 9.6 on a Azure VM and getting the below error:
Do you want to proceed with the installation? (yes/no): yes
Rocky Linux $releasever - BaseOS 6.3 kB/s | 26 kB 00:04
ERROR: Failed to install tar package.
Please install tar package manually and re-run the script.
Appreciate if you can provide a quick resolution.
Found the solution:
Installing tar explicitly with releasever resolved the issue
dnf install -y tar --releasever=9
