Deepak, thanks for writing that up. Seth Vidal has helped me come up
with a technical solution that should meet the requirements described in
your document.

This seems very wrong.
What I'm reading is that JPackage developers want to not use anything
in Fedora that also exists in JPackage.
Isn't this better done by repo costs and similar plugins, rather
than hacks either in the package version or vendor which can
be easily fooled?
