I am installing on RHEL 7 Update 6.

I get the following error when running the UnifiedInstaller:

sudo /usr/src/Plone-5.1.4-UnifiedInstaller/install.sh

How and where can I get the plone.recipe.precompiler?

I looked in the buildout-cache.tar.bz2 but it is not there.

The precompiler recipe package was omitted from the buildout cache. That's been fixed, and a new installer has been uploaded to launchpad.net and linked to the plone.org 5.1.4 release page.

Note: If you follow the Plone installation instructions here, you are told to execute:

wget --no-check-certificate https://launchpad.net/plone/5.1/5.1.4/+download/Plone-5.1.4-UnifiedInstaller.tgz

which has the problem with the missing egg.

To get your fix, one needs to use the following site instead...

https://launchpad.net/plone/5.1/5.1.4/+download/Plone-5.1.4-UnifiedInstaller-r1.tgz

(not obvious for someone following the instructions...)
