  • Did you check if it was available directly in a repository (to install with yum)? What is stopping you from installing a FTP client since you care so much about FTP? Commented Jan 21, 2017 at 21:26
  • I believe wget or curl also have basic FTP download support. Commented Jan 21, 2017 at 21:29
  • @phk: Keep up the faith as you are absolutely right. But we still don't know why OP can't use FTP so that may not be a solution as they could either be absent or some ports may be blocked. Commented Jan 21, 2017 at 22:28
  • @JuliePelletier I thought about that but how/where to check if PMD is in yum (which is now actually dnf?) Concerning FTP: I have a Fedora on a remote Server that I can reach only via PuTTY (SSH). The server is rented (not by me) and at least meanwhile I have no FTP access. Commented Jan 22, 2017 at 0:33
  • well you can download the software directly form curl or wget or if you can connect remotely through ssh you can simply use a utility called scp i hope it helps . Commented Jan 22, 2017 at 9:24
