Thanks José!
This looks promising, but I must admit that I don't understand enough of
the Fedora packaging process to really understand it. Can I use this for
personal projects without pushing it to the main Fedora packaging process?
I'm not totally opposed to becoming a full-blown package maintainer, but I
need to know a lot more before being willing to commit.
Thanks,
Jason

IIRC to deal with dependencies Jens Petersen's fbrnch should help you do
that:

The package is available in copr:
