I know putting stuff into /usr/local from an RPM is controversial, but
this way it lets it install stuff without conflicting with core
packages, and also puts the installed files first in your path, so you
can actually use them normally.

Are there any conflicts involving files other than manpages?

Yes. Several modules install shortcut binaries that normally go in /usr/bin.
