The last I heard from the Arch packaging efforts was that Unity won't
be an
officially supported package until it no longer depends on
non-upstream patches
to GTK+ and friends.
The same seems to be true for OpenSuse:

I don't think I'm going out on a limb if I say that this doesn't look
like
Unity will hit Fedora repos anytime soon. You may look at
repos.fedorapeople.org, though.
As far as I remember Adam Williamson once looked at the feasibility
of
packaging Unity for Fedora. Don't know what was the result, though.
Maybe he
can elaborate on that.
I tried Unity 2D, the QML version - it's much more easier to package for
Fedora, I was nearly done but Unity then introduced a lot of new G*
dependencies and I didn't want to step into our desktop lands (but I
suppose the are not using these deps, so it shouldn't be a big problem).
So I can try to give it another round.
