It worked between f18/f19 for Grizzly, do you see anything actually getting different between f19/f20?

For f20 you can just use Rawhide repos for now and f20 repos, when it branches.
For Grizzly, we had fedora-19 symlink at some point but removed it to encourage usage for Rawhide instead.

CCing Martin, Packstack maintainer to include those fixes in Rawhide builds.
