During the tests, the remote epel repository is generating a lots of
errors leading to broken jobs (issue #2666)
This patch is about using a local repository instead of a random one.
To achieve that, we make a preliminary install of epel-release, remove
the metalink and enforce a baseurl to our local http mirror.
That should speed up the build process but also avoid the random errors
we face.
This patch is part of a patch series that tries to remove all possible yum failures.
