+Hi Florian,
+
+I maintain a makefile for GNU/Linux systems that builds git-annex from scratch using a single command.
+
+ git clone http://git.colberg.org/packages.git
+
+ nice make -f packages.mk CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=16 PREFIX=$HOME/usr/rhel6-x64_64 install-git-annex
+
+The makefile fetches pre-compiled GHC 6.x (x86_64), which works on old systems (e.g. RHEL 5), builds a recent GHC 7.x from source, a minimal Haskell environment with cabal-install, and finally git-annex. I have succesfully compiled git-annex on RHEL 5.x and 6.x, and CentOS 6.x.
+
+If the build fails using the system's GCC, there is also a newer GCC in the same makefile:
+
+ nice make -f packages.mk CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=16 PREFIX=$HOME/usr/rhel6-x64_64 install-gcc
+
+Regards,
+Peter
