Fedora package

[AloisMahdal]

With the comand conflict resiolved, I took the first step to get slop into Fedora. It's my second package ever, so 🤞!

Once (I mean, if) it succeeds, this issue can serve to add the info to the README.rst.

So package review has been completed, dist repo created. Unless someone finds bug, it's basically just matter of time when ydiff will be available in Fedora:

• Rawhide (F29) - ydiff should be available in next daily build
• F28 - update submitted, waiting for testing,
• F27 - update submitted, waiting for testing.

Also, if someone wants to help with testing on F27/28, you can already install ydiff now using following command:

dnf install ydiff --enablerepo=updates-testing

If you find any Fedora-specific issues, add comment to the respective Bodhi instance above (or just comment here, if you don't have Fedora account).

Thanks for your effort! I plan to release perforce support in near future, what will be the process to get the package updated for Fedora too?

[AloisMahdal]

TL;DR: Just release ydiff as you normally would; I'll take care of the rest.

Long answer: It's part of my role as packager to watch for upstream releases and update Fedora package in a timely manner (which I'll be happy to do). Unless there are unusual new dependencies, packaging changes or regression, I should be done with the new package in few minutes. Then it goes to update testing phase (Bodhi), where it stays for couple of weeks (2, IIRC) to allow for testing; if no issues are found it gets auto-approved and synced to stable repos (normally all F27/F28/... at once). (Rawhide skips the Bodhi process, so it's included overnight after I submit the update.)

...aaand, the package is now in stable.

Awesome, thank you!
