Fred,

Please tell me which parts of Xiphos are not provided in EPEL.

 yum info xiphos-gtk3
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: centos.arvixe.com
 * epel: fedora-epel.mirror.lstn.net
 * extras: dallas.tx.mirror.xygenhosting.com
 * updates: mirror.fusioncloud.co
Available Packages
Name        : xiphos-gtk3
Arch        : x86_64
Version     : 4.0.3
Release     : 1.el7

The specific quote you were asking about is addressing the iOS client, though.
