Installing Azure CLI on Oracle Enterprise Linux - part 1 - dependencies

First thing we need is NPM

NPM is not part of the standard OEL distribution, so we need to get EPEL

wget https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-6.noarch.rpm

[root@ebscloud ~]# yum -y install epel-release-latest-6.noarch.rpm
