Description

We need symbolic links to ${VERSION}Server from ${VERSION} such as 7Server from 7. (Is it available on BinTray?)

We also need to update install information. We can't install epel-release by yum install -y epel-release. We need to specify URL explicitly: yum install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL for details.
