pvoborni/freeipa-4-3 was never official it was used for 4-3 pre-release 
testing. mkosek/freeipa-4.3 is (and other in mkosek namespace). But they 
are being migrated to @freeipa namespace. The only remaining is 
@mkosek/freeipa-4-2. It was not officially announced yet.

The issue is different versions of packages(mostly specs) and 
dependencies. Of course, it is possible to build certain packages with 
different srpm only for CentOS but using a different repo is in my 
opinion more clear.
