We are actually in agreement already, as I wasn't suggesting for
libunwind from EPEL to be included in CentOS Extras. Rather, I was
suggesting that the libunwind from CentOS-CR be included in CentOS
Extras. That way NGINX from EPEL can be installed and most importantly
the upgrade paths for both RHEL and CentOS are kept intact.

(I do appreciate there is limited time and other more important
priorities, such as the release of CentOS.)


Kind regards,
Jamie
