I completely hear you (as a SUSE employee, I am in the same situation and maintaining packages blindly without having an actual Fedora machine at hand is such a challenge, that I am left with only two relatively uncomplicated packages: lout and dictd), but yet I have to ask: isn’t the year 2025 the time when we should stop maintaining all these complicated toolchains multiple times? Shouldn’t be there just a Flatpak for BibleTime [1], Xiphos [2], using just one shared runtime of Sword and Biblesync (and I have no idea how well maintained those two particular Flatpaks are, BibleTime seems to be at least kept up-to-date)? Isn’t that whole multiplication of the effort just waste of time?
