Hi Marco, 

Specific packaging needs around RHEL 7, including the real-time variant, are part of 
EfficiOS packaging, support and feature development services, which allow us to 
develop and maintain the entire LTTng open source ecosystem. Please contact us 
in private to discuss the available options. 

Thanks for reaching out!
