That's a typo and has been fixed. Somehow, only one build passed the 
waiting for ssh stage and almost succeeded. But when I repeated the build, 
it started to fail again. I don't think it's a packer issue since the same 
configs worked with centos7.1/2/3 before. Most likely something is changed 
on centos7.4 and requires certain updates in my configs. Just don't know 
what they are...
