Also epel-release provides packages only for server architectures:
x86_64, ppc64, and aarch64, so if the 'network device' is built on
anything else, the whole thing is a non-starter.
I generally agree that attempting to ride on the coattails of
desktop/server Linux vendors is asking for frustration. People are still
trying though:

Much better to just write the recipes from the start, and share them
with the community :)
