This package is due to be removed from EPEL soon, because of EPEL's
policy of not competing/conflicting with base offerings. I wouldn't rely
on this particular package

Keep in mind that docker is part of upstream's 'Extras' repository,
which doesn't have the same lifecycle that the rest of EL7 has. It's a
shorter 18 month cycle I believe, so you might very well see re-basing
going on there.
