You are correct, it seems to have been missed. I have pinged the maintainer to get it build and pushed. The RHEL changelog says it was from Jan 2022 so this has been missing a while...
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

That's been built and pushed to the public repos so it should be hitting a mirror near you soon.

Thanks for spotting it.
