Attached is a rough draft of a guide for installing the GCP SDK on Fedora 22, Debian and Centos. The purpose of the guide is to bring together all pre-requisites which must be installed to support the GCP SDK, as well as its configuration in support of service accounts.

All of the methods listed here are generally not recommended. There are two official methods described at https://cloud.google.com/sdk/:

1. run curl https://sdk.cloud.google.com | bash

2. download google-cloud-sdk.zip or google-cloud-sdk.tar.gz, unpack it, and launch the ./google-cloud-sdk/install.sh script.

If you are on CentOS 6, you are correct that it is currently best to install python2.7. We are working on fixing it. After installing python2.7 somewhere, you need to set CLOUDSDK_PYTHON to point to that version of python.
