Bird 2 for CentOS/EPEL 6?

[Tim Meusel]

Hi people,

thanks for the great software!
I'm happily using Bird 2 on multiple CentOS 7 nodes. Sadly I now need to
rollout BGP to some CentOS 6 boxes :sadface:. I noticed that
ftp://bird.network.cz/pub/bird/centos/ only contains CentOS 7 packages,
and EPEL 6 only has Bird 1.6.8. However I wanted to ask if Bird 2 would
work on CentOS 6? Would Bird itself compile but dependencies are
outdated/missing?

Cheers, Tim
