Just tested that this works on AMI:
ln -s /etc/system-release /etc/redhat-release
yum --enablerepo=epel install trafficserver
service trafficserver start
Maybe if I should change the the EPEL package to work better on AMI..
Is there any better way to check for DISTRIB_ID on AMI than:
test -f /etc/system-releases && grep -q ^Amazon /etc/system-releases
?
