Because it is one of the core policies of RPM Fusion NOT to replace Fedora
packages when it can be avoided, and I'd like it to stay that way.

We should reuse the blender already packaged in Fedora and ship only the added
stuff as an addon, as this review request proposes. This also ensures that bugs
will usually only have to be fixed once, not twice.
