GnuPG is notorious for using /dev/random for generating keys, so yes,
this is likely to block in a variety of situations.  We don't see this
on newer systems because they've replaced the blocking /dev/random with
a non-blocking one except for when the CSPRNG hasn't been seeded at
least once.

The problem isn't lack of entropy, but the fact that there's no reason
to use /dev/random since /dev/urandom is suitable for all cryptographic
needs once initialized.  On modern versions of Linux, one just uses
getrandom(2), which deals with the uninitialized case and otherwise
doesn't block.  However, CentOS 7 is old.
