Alternatively, if you want to build your own rpms, there's

https://github.com/garybuhrmaster/packaging/blob/master/MythTV/rpm/README

I hesitate to suggest this, because I couldn't provide support for most 
of it and don't want to add to Gary's inbox;  but I have been running
selected versions of Master for el7 built with it for several months 
now.  I build, at present, under Fedora 28, and don't use the special 
el7 repo option because its updated version of libvpx was incompatible 
with the kde plasma desktop.

I think my local specfiles have a small number of tweaks that haven't 
made it to github.  At the moment I can't access them.  I'm looking at a 
kubuntu laptop...
