Installation of Metadata service is quite simple.

If you prefer to perform a source install, just

  ./configure --prefix=/the/desired/base/path
  make install

That's it.

RPM-based installs can be much more gratifying, though.
Simply get the RPM and install it, or build the rpm
by issuing

  ./configure
  make rpm

That's it!

In any case, the ZODB libraries must be locatable by Python.
If they are in a non-standard location, don't forget to

export PYTHONPATH=/path/to/ZODB/lib/python/

preferably in your .bashrc or /etc/bashrc files.
