Then just admit that the duplication causes more harm than good and make
the user set up his own yum configuration if pointing to jpackage is a

without badly duplicating packages with better upstreams. What's the
point of making things worse for your users?
Repository conflicts have always existed. As long as there is more than
one repository that is not perfectly complimentary, that is just a fact
of life. We just learn to work with it in a way we can. If that doesn't
suit you, do your own thing instead. Good luck.
