synergy dekstop sharing

I bought access to Synergy from the company supporting it because I've been using it for years and they deserve a few bucks. I use EPEL but don't want it clobber the version that I download from synergy-project.org. Thus, I have the following in my epel.repo:

$ sudo head /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo
[epel]
name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 7 - $basearch
#baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/$basearch
mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-7&arch=$basearch
failovermethod=priority
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-7
exclude=synergy*

This is another one of those posts I do to remind myself about what I did.
