It (probably?) would not hurt to have the epel
repos have a higher cost in the repo config
to discourage choosing the epel package over
the rhel package (if all things are equal, but
of course, they are not always equal).

For some specific cases where I needed to
build the -devel package in a copr (until or
unless I can get the -devel packages shipped
in CRB (or equivalent)) I have manually set
the cost for the copr repos to be high so that
for a non -devel install I got the rhel versions.
I would love to know if there is a better way.
It all just seems so non-optimal.
