Au contraire - right now, for example, I cannot install marco from EPEL:


Packages presumably vary, but the bugzilla comments indicated that the only real condition now for EPEL is compatibility with RHEL 7.1; what concerned me was that there was no warning during installation that qtwebkit would fail. In fact the failure was total, but with other (hypothetical) packages it might not have been so clearcut.
