You don't need that package. Mike was referring to the commentary on the net.ipv4.ipfrag_max_dist system parameter and not that the package was needed. Modifying that parameter through the regular system utilities is necessary on RedHat-based systems in order to properly receive the UDP packets from the Novra. Go to https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/noaaport/current/ and see the "Preinstallation" section.
