  1. Add the EPEL and Four Kitchens Yum repositories.
  2. Install Ant and other dependencies:
    No Format
    sudo yum install ant ant-apache-regexp bzr bzrtools createrepo
    
  3. Make the project available in a Bazaar branch
    • If the project is already in Bazaar, this is done.
    • If the project is not in Bazaar, try to create a local branch that imports the appropriate code from Subversion, Mercurial, or git. Importing Subversion on CentOS 5 requires Subversion support for Bazaar on CentOS 5.
    • If all else fails, export the code to deploy and import it into a Bazaar branch. Commit.
