When EPEL-8 was getting set up, HA was a paid add-on for EL8 and so not
available in the developer license. EPEL therefore did not conflict against
it or use it as a 'you can't build this in EPEL'. EPEL will end up
conflicting with some RHEL channels.. but since there is no 'Requires:
Conflicts:' in repo land we can't do much about it.
