I, too, have experienced this same problem, although it was with installing
CAVE on CentOS 7 (I haven’t tried installing EDEX on CentOS 7).
Using the latest install.sh script, it downloads the awips2 repo, but then
doesn't find anything to install, on CentOS 7.4.1708:
# ./install.sh --cave
wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/awips2.repo

A verbose manual groupinstall shows yum is skipping the needed packages for
CAVE. Why, I don't know.

The workaround that fixed the problem for me was to manually yum install each
these packages individually (i.e. without the groupinstall):
# yum install awips2 awips2-python* awips2-cave* awips2-gfe* awips2-notif*
I suspect a similar workaround would be successful to install the required EDEX
packages and any dependencies on CentOS 7.
