Pro tip:
You can probably get away with using any missing packages from
F19 armv7hl, F19 and EL7 are very, very similar.
F17 armv5tel packages on RSEL7 are also likely to work. Just bear
in mind that those packages will be unmaintained as those distros
are EOL so you will be on your own for any security patches for
them.
