CentOS - Nov 2015 - install rrdtools-devel / rrdtool-perl

I will expand a little bit more.

I need to install nfdump,
when I beggin installation process:
[root at ARM-LXMON01 nfdump-1.6.13]# ./configure \--prefix=/usr/local 
\--sysconfdir=/etc \--mandir=/usr/share/man \--enable-nfprofile 
\--enable-nftrack \--enable-sflow \--enable-nsel

checking for rrd_update in -lrrd... no
configure: error: Can not link librrd. Please specify --with-rrdpath=.. 
configure failed!

I do:
[root at ARM-LXMON01 nfdump-1.6.13]# find / -name librrd*
/usr/lib64/librrd.so.4
/usr/lib64/librrd.so.4.2.1
/usr/lib64/librrd_th.so.4
/usr/lib64/librrd_th.so.4.2.1
[root at ARM-LXMON01 nfdump-1.6.13]#

So Then I do:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --sysconfdir=/etc 
--mandir=/usr/share/man --enable-nfprofile --enable-nftrack 
--enable-sflow --enable-nsel --with-rrdpath=/usr/lib64/librrd.so.4

But It doesnot work either.
configure: error: in `/usr/local/src/nfdump-1.6.13':
configure: error: C preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check

I remember , I solved this issue in my centos 6 , after install 
rrdtool-devel and rrdtool-perl packages.
Can I try domething else ?
Regards.
Leandro.

You shouldn't need to, no.

I'm guessing you've got a cruddy version installed from somewhere else,
else
the yum install would have just worked, but I'm just guessing as you've
not
posted anything to say what happened when you tried the yum install.

rpm -q rrdtool

Possibly:

yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=base downgrade rrdtool
yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=base install rrdtool-devel rrdtool-perl

This may also clear up where you are:
yum list rrdtool --show-duplicates

jh

Im very sorry.
You were right, yum install works flawlessly  for rrdtool, rrdtool-devel 
and rrdtool-perl packages.
I tryed on a fresh centos7 install.
The problem is that my Os is not a centos7 instead is a redhat 7.
Since I dont have any support for this , I asked some help here. I 
thought that repositories are the same for fedora,redhat and centos.
My mistake ...
I dont know what to do now.

Thankyou!!
