I guess the bugzilla number in the subject is meant as an explanation:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1450577

FWIW, I welcome that finally someone is working towards getting this
fixed, as it seems users have a hard time understanding and handling
kernel-devel packages.

I didn't look to much into this recently, but I think there might be an
easier and better solution: Don't provide variant specific kernel-devel
package at all (like kernel-PAE-devel), just ship one kernel-devel
package that provides the files for all the kernel variants on the
architecture in question (IOW: on x86-32 simply ship the files that
currently are in kernel-PAE-devel in kernel-devel instead & get rid of
kernel-PAE-devel). Sure, kernel-devel gets bigger. But my gut says it's
the better solution (but I didn't check and someone should how much it
grows if we want to go down that route).

CU, knurd
