I've got a script for quickly building KVM VMs with libvirt from a
kickstart, and I think others would find this useful. I've put it on
Github, including an RPM spec, and would like to see it in Fedora and
EPEL.
Is it okay for me to package my own software, or should I try to recruit
someone else? Packaging my own software makes it feel like I'm abusing
Fedora's infrastructure and mirror servers around the world, just to
make it easier for me to install my own script and dependencies. :)
Right now, the script is ks-libvirt, and I named my repo ks-install (so
that's what I'd name the RPM), because I plan to take the same framework
and make other scripts to do the same thing to other VM platforms
(oVirt, and maybe VMware).
There's nothing wrong with maintaining your own software in Fedora. In
fact, it's highly encouraged, because that makes it more likely that
bug reports will be acted upon!
