External Email - Use Caution
You could try first installing rocky8, then install freesurfer, then *upgrade* the machine to rocky9, though you still may not have python2 after the upgrade. We have not run into any issues so far running the freesurfer rocky8 binaries on rocky9. You could try using the —skip-broken switch when you install the RPM directly on rocky9. You could try downloading/building python2 directly on the Rocky9 machine, i.e., see this thread with same issue on CentOS9,https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71256853/how-do-i-install-python2-on-cen... - R.

Unfortunately, python2 is not available on this Linux version, but we believe it is necessary to run FreeSurfer.Are there possible FreeSurfer builds that do not require python2? Or would it be better to run FreeSurfer from a container image based on Rocky 8, which still has Python2 available?Or, are there other solutions that would be better for us? We’d be grateful for any suggestions for our set up.
