It's been a while since this bug was opened. Since there hasn't been a response, I'm going to fix this package/problem. To me, it looks like we have four different solutions. 1 - remove the package (not my favorite idea, I think it would be great if this were in EPEL) 2 - Remove the dependency and use the slim default background. (Simplest, Fastest. Depends on what that background is) 3 - Remove the dependency, grab the background from desktop-backgrounds-basic and use it in slim (Simple, Fast. We have control over the background still) 4 - Add desktop-backgrounds to EPEL. (Hardest, Slowest. Possibly help more packages and people than just slim) I'm looking at 2 or 3 to fix the problem in the short term. The default slim background has a red color scheme, as opposed to the default-blue that it get's replaced to. For Fedora (which is blue themed) I could see changing it. But for RHEL based, I think the red color scheme sorta matches. Unless someone objects, I'm going to go with option 2. But I will only comment out the linking and Requires line. If the time comes that desktop-backgrounds makes it into EPEL, we can always uncomment it, and have it in sync Fedora. slim-1.3.6-7.el7 has been submitted as an update to Fedora EPEL 7. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2018-2d7ce3ce7a slim-1.3.6-7.el7 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 7 testing repository.
