I see this also with libgtop2.  I currently cannot install the Mate
group because the packages in EPEL require libgtop-2.0.so.10, which is
in the package libgtop2-2.28.4-7.el7.x86_64.rpm, which in turn is only
in SL7rolling.  This suggests that EPEL is built against 7rolling,
which seems like a really bad idea.
