I don't want to presume too much but I just hope you researched why packagedb was decommissioned and why people thought integrating the functionality into pagure was a good idea?
pkgdb was decommissioned because modularity needed a lot of changes across the infrastructure, and pkgdb was in a state that made it expensive to alter (or even to maintain). That said, I do miss how things were back when we had pkgdb. I wish we had been able to rewrite or rebase it rather than eliminate it.
I personally think keeping package data separate from the git data makes sense (i.e., having a generic git server, and a separate app like pkgdb to do Fedora package specific things). Then the git server can just be an off-the-shelf program, and infrastructure can focus solely on maintaining the code that is unique to Fedora's needs.
