As raised here: #227 (comment)

Flintrock depends on some tools being available on the remote hosts it's managing, including:

yum
Python
curl
Bash

It would provide a better user experience if we explicitly checked for these tools and provided clean error messages when they are not available.

Sometimes people try to use Flintrock with AMIs that do not have these available and get frustrated by the messy failures.
