I see there's an Ubuntu package - just hoping it'll be back in Fedora. I
want Canorus for notational flexibility.

Looks like the Fedora package was orphaned by Orcan:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=9217
And development in general looks very slow--probably why it was orphaned. If
somebody (like you!) is willing and able to pick this up, we'd be glad to have
it. The reality is that there aren't enough package maintainers in the Audio
SIG, and the ones we do have are stretched far and wide.
Canorus isn't a priority, for me at least, because of the large amount of
actively developed music/audio software that's entirely missing from the
repositories. (Full disclosure: I'm not yet responsible for any packages; I plan
to start with a few for Fedora 18).
If you are interested in helping out, even by learning the slow/long/difficult
way, we'd like to help you get started!

If you need any help to get started with packaging, I'm very willing to
help. I have just been through the entire process, learning how to make
a rpm file, how to get sponsored and all that jazz, so I have it fresh
in memory ;)

Possibly interesting. I've had problems compiling it from source -
perhaps because of configure. I wonder if the Ubuntu pkg actually works,
and if it can be aliened. I'll poke the Canorus people again if they're
not listening. I don't have any experience in large scale work, and my
speciality is Forth. Canorus would exit on attempting save.

Yes I orphaned it a while ago [1] and no one else claimed it back
then. Canorus started out as a promising Google SoC project, but it
development slowed down drastically after the summer was over.
Unfortunately, the software was not quite stable when this occurred. I
did not chock its progress in the last 2 years though. I certainly
don't mind someone else taking over the packaging.
