MySQL 5+
mod_perl >= 2.0

You shouldn't install PHP unless you need for other services.

Nothing specific ...

XML::LibXML. There is a number of helper applications that you will need.

Unless you have a burning desire to compile from source, use a package
manager and install EPrints using the RPM (or use the RPM to load the
dependencies and install from .tar.gz).

EPrints *should* upgrade itself from any 3.x version.
