Bug 1623909

Description of problem:
while playing with dnf on centos7, after some update in libdnf, i noticed, that dnf related libraries and dnf itself are not updating, with message about unresolved dependencies. further investigation of libdnf spec revealed, that it has build requirement for swig >= 3.0.12, which is not in epel7/rhel7/centos7. and libdnf is dependency for librepo

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install dnf on centos7 from rpmsoftwaremanagement/dnf-nightly copr
