[slurm-users] Re: Why is Slurm 20 the latest RPM in RHEL 8/Fedora repo?

I agree with Bjørn to build it from source to have more control. We do it with tarballs like schedmd suggests so we can also easily switch between versions without deleting/installing rpms/debs.

This isn't answering your question, but I strongly suggest you build Slurm from source. You can use the provided slurm.spec file to make rpms (we do) or use "configure + make". Apart from being able to upgrade whenever a new version is out (especially important for security!), you can tailor the rpms/build to your needs (IB? SlingShot? Nvidia? etc.).
