If showing a separate package in the installed package list is a
problem, then the configuration files could be shipped directly in the
fedora-release-* packages too. Which also incidentally makes the whole
thing much easier to handle because that way we'd have less conflicting
packages in the repository.

I'm sure there are downsides to this though, like configuration possibly
getting out of sync with the actual programs if nobody takes care of
updating the fedora-release-* packages.
