Unless we're willing to re-invent the particular wheel being used for
CentOS 6, apparently yes. By the time I'm done rebuilding that in *my*
copious free time, well, the time burnt on efforts that are awkward to
submit as updates or patches to the existing process due to its closed
nature is time I could have pursued a dozen other projects with.
(Trying to build ActiveMQ under RHEL for RPM bundling right now: that
is *nasty* work, it's worse than Perl modules with too many bleeding
edge component dependencies!!!)
