And I've already hit a stumbling block for the srpm route, too. It wants libvoxin-devel and espeak-ng-devel, neither of which I'm finding RPMs for in the repos I have configured. Google didn't turn up much in the way of RPMs, either.
Adrian or others, how did you get past these? Or did you just remove these components from the build spec?

I figured that would work, and I was keeping this in mind as plan B but thought I would first ask about the binary RPMs: what distro they were in fact intended for and if there's a way to get them working on Centos 7. Given the glibc version, I assumed no but figured it couldn't hurt to ask.
