I attempted to follow the documentation to install HASS on to Centos 7.5 minimal. I found gcc gcc-c++ were required for hass to complete the auto install of various python packages and systemd-devel for zwave. Figure this information/step should be included in the installation wiki for centos.

To run Python 3.x on [CentOS](https://www.centos.org/) or RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux), [Software Collections](https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/rhscl/rh-python36/) needs to be activated first.
|
|
|
|
You must install Python 3.5.3 or later. Software Collections version of Python 3.5 is 3.5.1 so this guide uses Python 3.6.
|
|
|
|
### {% linkable_title Using Software Collections %}
|
|
|
|
First of all install the software collection repository as root. For example, on CentOS:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ yum install centos-release-scl
|
|
```
|
|
Install some dependencies you'll need later.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ yum install gcc gcc-c++ systemd-devel
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then install the Python 3.6 package:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ yum install rh-python36
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once installed, switch to your `homeassistant` user (if you've set one up), enable the software collection and check that it has set up the new version of Python:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ scl enable rh-python36 bash
|
|
$ python --version
|
|
Python 3.6.3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You will be in a command shell set up with Python 3.6 as your default version. The virtualenv and pip commands will be correct for this version, so you can now create a virtual environment and install Home Assistant following the main [instructions](/docs/installation/virtualenv/#step-4-set-up-the-virtualenv).
|
|
|
|
You will need to enable the software collection each time you log on before you activate your virtual environment.
|
|
|
|
### {% linkable_title Systemd with Software Collections %}
|
|
|
|
To autostart Home Assistant using systemd follow the main [instructions](/docs/autostart/systemd/) and adjust the template as follows:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[Unit]
|
|

|
|
After=network.target
|
|
|
|
[Service]

|
|
# Make sure the virtualenv Python binary is used
|
|
Environment=VIRTUAL_ENV="/srv/homeassistant"
|
|
Environment=PATH="$VIRTUAL_ENV/bin:$PATH"
|
|
# ExecStart using software collection:
|
|

|
|
