In Debian distributions exist file:
  /etc/dpkg/origins/default
which is symlink to
  /etc/dpkg/origins/debian
with content:
  Vendor: Debian
  Vendor-URL: http://www.debian.org/
  Bugs: debbugs://bugs.debian.org

Do we have some alternative to this in Fedora world?

The goal of this file is to difference vendor. See:
  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=487437
for more details.
Then dpkg-vendor(1) works with this information.

For example Ubuntu point the symlink to
/etc/dpkg/origins/ubuntu with content:
Vendor: Ubuntu
Vendor-URL: http://www.ubuntu.com/
Bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug
Parent: Debian

I am only aware of:
  /etc/*-release
which is not perfect equivalent.
