--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
 Essentially, this is advice to people who try to build mlpack on
 scientific linux from my experiences.

 the default repos do not include an up-to-date cmake, so either build from
 source (using the bootstrap.sh) or add the EPEL repo to /etc/yum.repos.d,
 and install cmake28.

 Attempt to build normally. If that fails, recreate the build directory,
 edit /usr/include/armadillo_bits/config.hpp to comment out
 {{{
 #define ARMA_USE_WRAPPER
 }}}
 and edit cmakelists.txt to include
 {{{
 set(ARMADILLO_LIBRARIES "${ARMADILLO_LIBRARIES};blas;lapack")
 }}}
 at line 61; the line after
 {{{
 find_package(Armadillo 2.4.2 REQUIRED)
 }}}
 When running cmake this time, add the argument "-D Boost_NO_BOOST_CMAKE=1"
 in addition to additional arguments used.

 If it builds, but tests fail due to inability to find libraries, run
 "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib"
