--- Comment #12 from Bruno Postle <[email protected]> ---
Having IfcOpenShell in fedora is definitely a goal and I don't think there are
any licensing obstacles. The FreeCAD BIM module needs IfcOpenShell, though it
fails gracefully if it is not available - ie. FreeCAD can be built without
IfcOpenShell and the BIM functionality magically appears if it is subsequently
installed.

IfcOpenShell has finally moved to a regular release schedule (every few
months), this was a blocker before.

Bonsai is in the same repository as IfcOpenShell so I package it as a
subpackage, but I don't think that users would be well-served by having a
Bonsai that was always a few months out of date, so this is not ready for
fedora. ie. any fedora IfcOpenShell package would exclude Bonsai, and I would
continue packaging snapshosts of IfcOpenShell with Bonsai in a COPR. FreeCAD
doesn't need an IfcOpenShell snapshot and is fine with the current stable
release.

The main problem is that various IfcOpenShell sub-modules require python
packages that are not currently in fedora:

    python3-pystache python3-olca python3-cjio python3-xsdata

I don't have the capacity to take on maintaining libraries in fedora that I
don't understand.
