For what it's worth, using the Fedora package has been exceedingly stable on my CentOS 7 system. SA is extensively tested by the dev team before release, and there is very little that is system-specific so building from the SRPM is easy and straightforward. Installing really is as simple as the four steps I included in the prior email, and I've been running SA that way on CentOS systems for years (from CentOS 5 onwards). Granted, I am just one person and my setup is unique to me, so my experience may not translate to others. But I've found the SA package to be completely stable. (Note that it's still built "inside" the RPM, because it's built from the SRPM used for Fedora.) Cheers. --- Amir
