I am sure it will, certainly when version 45 goes EOL.

The variables and content to build it on EL6 are in the current EL7
SRPM, but the EL5 stuff is (understandably, since it is going EOL soon)
missing.

What I am not sure of is if EL7 will stay on the Current Release for the
next update or if it will shift back to ESR.
