1. Summary:

The docker-latest package has been deprecated in the Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 7 Extras channel.

2. Description:

virtually anywhere.

The docker-latest package will no longer be updated through the Extras
channel. Instead, Red Hat customers are advised to use the docker package,
which continues to be updated and fully supported.

relevant to your system have been applied.
