I tried repository packages from different RHEL-like distros, they all
depend on something like 'centos-release' or 'redhat-release', but my OS
instead has 'system-release'.

Just tried installing it as `rpm --nodep -i $URL` - seemingly succeeded,
but repo has $releasever in it, saying 'latest' and so pointing to 404

Now I try to install repo manually as text file and GPG key.

How safe is it from dependency/version standpoint ?
Is building from source (micro instance!) a more feasible option ?
