I would argue that newcomers to RHEL/CentOS are very likely to have heard of EPEL from numerous guides on the Internet, but are unlikely to have heard of CR (or even know what CR stands for). Also, if a newcomer happens to hear about CR and read the CR page [0], it doesn't exactly fill them with confidence (though I've never actually seen breakage on CR, this is what is advertised): > They are less comprehensively reviewed in the QA validation stage. > Will likely have a few more build issues. > Please also subscribe to the centos-cr-announce list. Also, when installing nginx, you get this error message: > --> Finished Dependency Resolution > Error: Package: gperftools-libs-2.4-5.el7.x86_64 (epel) > Requires: libunwind.so.8()(64bit) > You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem > You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest It's not obvious (to the newcomer) from this error message that the solution is to enable CR repository.
