ldirectord requires no extra packages to build on RHEL. It just a perl script. You may be concerned about the running environment; it requires perl-MailTools at least which can be obtained only from EPEL or CentOS extras, but ldirectord users have been already doing to collect such packages when they want to use it. I can provide a patch to the spec file if it's ok to build. Note that the (linux-ha) resource-agents should have been completely independent from libnet as of 1.0.4. Before that IPv6addr RA was the only dependency of libnet.
