 +To be able to use Mosquitto for MQTT, you will need to add the EPEL repo. Execute the following command as root:
 +
 +  yum -y install epel-release
 +  
 +Now install the development tools:
 +
 +  yum group install "Development Tools"
 +  
 +and finally the rest of the prerequisite packages
 +
 +  yum install libarchive-devel nspr-devel ncurses-devel libcap-devel systemd-devel xorg-x11-server-devel SDL-devel lrzsz gkermit mosquitto-devel
