In the case of puppet (and probably some of the others listed in the
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp section), puppet provides an emacs file,
but it also owns %{_datadir}/emacs so as not to require emacs. AFAIK,
since puppet provides this file, the filelists don't need to be
downloaded to resolve the dep. At least, I don't recall ever seeing
it download them when I've installed or updated puppet.
In the bug requesting the puppet emacs/vim stuff¹, I did ask whether
making subpackages was preferable to including them in the main
package and owning the common dirs. I still could go either way on
that. No one else on Cc: in the bug seemed to have an opinion.
Thanks for looking into these kinds of details Seth!
