From a user's perspective, the best way to not have to 'find' jpackage
packages - or worry about conflicts - would be for the yum configuration
for the jpackage repo to be installed out of the box in fedora and have
no duplication at all.
As indicated earlier, that wouldn't really work either. It would bring
in all the problems in separating Fedora Core and Fedora Extras with the
additional legal liability of linking to a third party repository. All
programs including Openoffice.org which has some Java dependencies would
have to moved out of the primary repository into a third party one. Not
going to fly.
