I have a similar issue actually, but the other way around:
Fresh F21 beta workstation install. I tried to install KDE using dnf,
but fedora-release-workstation and fedora-release-nonproduct conflict.
If I try to remove fedora-release-workstation, dnf replaces it with
fedora-release-server which gets me back to the same state really. Is it
impossible to install other DEs along the workstation at the moment
using dnf?
[asinha@localhost ~]$ sudo dnf remove
fedora-release-workstation

Is this ok [y/N]:

I'm assuming yum shell should be able to help here, but dnf doesn't have
such a feature yet - I also don't expect a normal end user to resort to
yum shell. Do the different fedora-release-* packages have to conflict?
Can't I be running a workstation product and a server product and
miscellaneous bits (a union, rather than the current apparent mutual
exclusion)? This must've been discussed before, I just can't find the
discussion.
