Python 2.6 RPM functionality for EL5

This repo contains patches for EL5 RPMs to support the python rpm and yum modules to work with EPEL installed python2.6

Instructions

Building

This utilizes docker, and assumes that docker is running locally and can utilize bind mount volumes. As such this also requires the docker python module.

ansible-playbook -v -i hosts build.yml

This will download the python2.6 RPMs to ./rpms

Installing

Install the RPMs from the ./rpms directory
