Building-wise, it should be the same as anywhere else; I currently
check that it still builds on CentOS 6 (though I'll probably stop
looking that far back pretty soon).  Dependancy package names are
probably all the same as on Fedora too.

Can't help with any details there, though.  I don't know why it
wouldn't, and I'd assume the config is likewise pretty much a mirror
of Fedora's, so...
