[winswitch] Failed install on centos7

[Donald Arseneau]

Hello anyone,

I tried to install xpra (both with the repository and with downloaded
rpm files), and I get the same dependency problems.

The hardest seems to be the newer VP8/VP9 library libvpx.so.4.
I grabbed libvpx-1.6.0-1.fc25.x86_64.rpm for fedora 25, but it
has too many dependency problems (too new) to go on centos7.

Another problem is a conflict between python-netifaces and
python2-netifaces reminiscent of the bug
http://winswitch.org/trac/ticket/263
but maybe that is unrelated... I don't know.

I see the rpms at https://www.xpra.org/dists/CentOS/7.3.1611/x86_64/
are from just a few days ago, so maybe they will get updates soon.

Any ideas?
