    Welcome to the forums!

    Red Hat and Fedora both use RPM files. Yum is probably the easiest method of installing software on both distros for most users. Otherwise, you can check this HowTo (post #2) for installing software from source:

    I think you can use dictzip/dictunzip to work with .dz files. I've never used it myself, though. Maybe someone more familiar with it will reply.
