I am not convinced that moving it to texlive-fonts-extra is a good idea.
Assume you have a document that uses the fonts as shipped in
fonts-extra, but you have cyrfonts installed instead of fonts-extra.
That means that you will generate a completely wrong document.
So it is really not a conflict between fonts-extra and cyrfonts, but
all of TeX Live.
Someone has to simply take up these package, rip out the TeX stuff
and only ship the rest.
Best wishes
