Indeed, there should not be a requirement on having EPEL enabled on the CentOS-7 builders. At least not for the building of the glusterfs tarball. We still need to do releases of glusterfs-4.1 and glusterfs-5, until then it is expected to have python2 as the (only?) version for the system. Is it possible to remove python3 from the CentOS-7 builders and run the jobs that require python3 on the Fedora builders instead? I guess we could force the release-4.1 and release-5 branches to use python2 only. This might be done by exporting PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 in the environment where './configure' is run. That would likely require changes to multiple Jenkins jobs...
