What needs to be bootstrapped? Can't CentOS and EPEL 7 just be used as
as a package source like Fedora is used for the Fedora branches?
yes, and
everything should work here as the branch and target is already setup.
But if you want to build mythtv you will miss a lot of dependencies
(a52dec, faac, etc), thoses are usually provided by the rpmfusion-free
section, but needs to be at the appropriate version for el7 for the
whole repository to behave appropriately. That's just what I mean by
bootstraping el7.
Then there is a case with x264/ffmpeg which is a special case of
circle dependency kind of bootstraping.
