OpenVINO setup via Archive necessity?

[raystriker]

In the project README, the OpenVINO installation only mentions that OpenVINO is to be installed via the archive. Archives are supposedly only supported for Ubuntu 22.04, 20.04, Ubuntu 18.04, RHEL 8 and CentOS 7 and and Debian 9.

I found out that with using the YUM method opens official support for many more rpm distributions like-
RHEL 8.2 and higher
Amazon Linux 2022 and 2023
Rocky Linux 8.7, 8.8 and 9.2
Alma Linux 8.7, 8.8 and 9.2
Oracle Linux 8.7, 8.8 and 9.2
Fedora 29 and higher up to 40
OpenEuler 20.03 and 22.03
Anolis OS 8.6 and 8.8
CentOS Stream 8 and 9

I was able to build whisper.cpp without having to set up required environment by sourcing setupvars script. Perhaps this method could be recommended to users as it is much simpler?
