I'd like to build packages using a build system (i.e. jenkins, travis, etc) but all I have are Ubuntu 12.04 VMs.
I've found this [1] instructions but mach does not support CentOS 7.0.

sudo apt-get install rpm # for Ubuntu
Check out the command that it installs called rpmbuild.
Found it! There is actually a tool called rinse: "Rinse is a simple tool which is designed to carry out the installation of a new RPM-based distribution".
rinse --distribution="centos-7" --directory="/tmp/centos-7"
