It would be a ton of effort, and those will all EOL soon or already have...

I don't think we will do provides, that would cause problems installing the stand alone collections. So, yeah, we want to be able to install the stand alone collections along with or in addition to the bundle. > Also, I would be happy to help with Ansible packaging in Fedora; > however, I am not yet part of the packager group and still need a > sponsor.
