It works in openSUSE because they have sticky vendors on by default. While we
have the feature in DNF, we do not enable it by default yet.

The sticky vendors feature means that if a package name is provided by one
vendor vs another, the package manager won't auto-switch unless the user
specifically requests the switch.

Maybe one day we could make a Fedora Change to turn it on, but for now, we lack
that feature.
