The last I heard from the Arch packaging efforts was that Unity won't be an
officially supported package until it no longer depends on non-upstream patches
to GTK+ and friends.
The same seems to be true for OpenSuse:
Since we're replacing some of the core components of openSUSE
(ex: GTK+,
gnome-session) the priority is important.

I don't think I'm going out on a limb if I say that this doesn't look like
Unity will hit Fedora repos anytime soon. You may look at
repos.fedorapeople.org, though.
As far as I remember Adam Williamson once looked at the feasibility of
packaging Unity for Fedora. Don't know what was the result, though. Maybe he
can elaborate on that.
