Hi David,

that image was made before the final release. All packages should be
fine, but the place of the mirrors file changed.
easiest solution is to update the redsleeve-release package:
# yum update
http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.redsleeve.org/pub/el7/packages/base/RPMS/changed/redsleeve-release-7-1.1503.el7.1.armv5tel.rpm

The main repos should then be OK.
other repositories you might be interested in are to be added by hand to
the yum config. their locations are:
# RPi2 kernels and related stuff:
http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.redsleeve.org/pub/el7-devel/el7/raspberrypi/mirrors
# updates-testing:
http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.redsleeve.org/pub/el7-devel/el7/mirrors-updates-testing
# an unmaintained EPEL snapshot of may this year:
http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.redsleeve.org/pub/el7-devel/el7/EPEL-full/mirrors

These repos are all unsigned.
