Sorry I worded that badly, I should have made clear that I was talking in the context of Centos7 (as was in the OP IIRC) . I can't speak to the history because I don't know it but when I switched to Centos7 maybe 2yrs ago to get the necessary packages the only
option (I could see) was nux-dextop and I presume that is why the wiki was written that way. I don't know why the necessary packages were not available through rpmfusion on Centos7.

<p style="margin: 0 0 1em 0; color: black;">And just for full disclosure I never had any issues with nux-dextop either, everything worked as well as I expected. But now that packages are available via rpmfusion (on Centos7) that is the way I have since moved.
