So I ran a fairly simple report against EPEL versus both RHEL-7 Server
and CentOS-7. They actually came out to be very close to each other in
what packages are currently failing either repoclosure or that EPEL is
replacing as seen by repoclosure and repodiff. The files themselves
were over 78k each so I cut it down to just the name of the packages
which fail dependencies and then just the part where packages are
either upgraded or downgraded.
The following packages in EPEL x86_64 do not have various dependencies
met in either RHEL-7 or CentOS
