Can a repo be provided for fedora, especially a package that doesnt depend on: /usr/libexec/platform-python

I have installed it by source in Fedora and it works fine - except for the zfs specific options that hook up to volume shadow copy

I had done that at first but then made a wrapper rpm that provides /usr/libexec/platform-python by

ln /usr/bin/python3.9 /usr/libexec/platform-python

That allowed me to use the centos8 repo and not have to keep looking at the source for updates, cool thing it also allowed my to install their other package cockpit-navigator.

Hello all,
We will not be providing a repo for Fedora. Installing from source and using @jose-pr solution to create a wrapper rpm by creating a symbolic link between python 3.9 to platform-python will be the solution in this case.
Thank you for the solution!
