Up through version 5.3.6 there was a Fedora build of Racket, and as of
a couple years ago I used it on "Amazon Linux" (which IIUC is ~=
CentOS). I vaguely recall needing to symlink one .so to the name
Racket expected, but otherwise I don't remember any problems.
(Although I'm not sure why Racket dropped the Fedora build after
5.3.6, it's been n/a for me because more recently, when I've made an
Amazon EC2 instance or Digital Ocean droplet, it's been fine for my
simple purposes to use Ubuntu.)
Apparently, there is a repo with racket for CentOS and Fedora:

Hi all,
I am looking at a possible deployment on a Centos based cloud VM and I won't
have a compiler available to build Racket locally. Is there a pre-made
distribution (preferably 6.0.1) that runs on Centos 6 or 7?
If not, how hard would it be to compile Racket on a separate Centos machine
and then install it to the cloud VPS? [He asks naively never having built
Racket before.]
Thanks,
George
