It is quite strange actually. Normally, if a package is not included

replace the upstream package.
By using only server and server-optional we have the weird case where only
half of the package can be used. Jansson specific, I cannot add jansson to
epel because it is already included, but I cannot use it because the
jansson-devel is omitted and only half of the resulting binary rpms are
used.
I hope this gets reviewed in the future.
You can propose to do something like this:
