Hey, I recently setup CKAN on CentOS 6 as well and wrote up the process
here:

http://wiki.ckan.org/Install_CKAN_on_CentOS

Maybe you'll find that useful, or have something to add to it?

About the tempita issue, it looks like version 0.4 is intended to be
used and that's what I have in my CKAN pyenv's on various systems
(Ubuntu, CentOS, OS X) where all the tests are passing.

You're right that following the install instructions on Ubuntu 10.04
you'll end up with Tempita 0.4 on your system and 0.5.1 in your
virtualenv, so there does seem to be a mistake in the requirements
files. I tested this on a fresh Ubuntu 10.04 VM and interestingly I have
a couple of tests failing reliably with Tempita 0.5.1:

ckan.tests.functional.test_user.TestUserController.test_user_create_unicode
ckan.tests.functional.test_user.TestUserController.test_login_remembered

If I then pip install lucid_present.txt with --ignore-installed to get
Tempita 0.4 in the pyenv, these tests pass.

Is anyone else seeing this?
