No, "7" always points to latest release which means the content changes
on a new release, invalidating our ports.  We want to use the full
version.  Is there a problem with fetching the packages?  It looks like
7.4 has been archived to vault.centos.org, which is included in
MASTER_SITES so the packages should still fetch.  The c7 ports need to be
updated to 7.6.  There's a PR about here:
