For cockpit, I'll have a look at include those in CentOS Extras for
armhfp (so far we weren't tracking the x86_64 repo but we'll try from
now on)

WRT X window, someone will have to spend time debugging what's missing
from the [base] repo and mentioning things outside like xfce/lxde (or
whatever like fluxbox, etc) comes with other questions : we have an
"unofficial" rebuild so it can be (or not) that we have those already
built and available ..

I admit not having a lot of free time those days to look at this, but if
nobody has a look , I'll try later to see what's missing and why. In the
meantime, if someone does it, that would be very welcome :-)
