All support for Fedora n should be dropped at Fedora n's end of life.

We do not support this usecase. It is just not feasible to maintain so many 
conditionals in our packages. And Fedora version conditionals won't help you 
anyway if you're building for RHEL, you'd need RHEL version conditionals, 
which packages not supporting EPEL are very unlikely to contain.
