Additional info:
Hmm, I never made an attempt to be compatible with the upstream packages. I'll take a look though.
The upstream rpms do not have a clean separation between the main and -client sub-packages, so I'm not going to attempt to reproduce it or support upgrading from it.
Thanks for checking. I'll install EPEL version from scratch.
