Hi Robert and all,

I tried to build on CentOS7 / RHEL7 and quickly saw that I'm not coming far.

$ cd build
$ cmake ..
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:13 (cmake_minimum_required):
  CMake 3.0 or higher is required.  You are running version 2.8.12.2

Then, there is a nanomsg RPM in EPEL for RHEL7 but none for RHEL8. For
mbedtls, it is also only in the EPEL repository, not in the distribution
itself.

Depending on something from EPEL is usually not something I like because
EPEL is a moving target and if a maintainer doesn't continue to work on a
package, it is removed from EPEL.

So, for RHEL, it's a bit difficult to build RPMs for Pound 3.

Regards,
Simon
