Even though Fedora probably is kinda popular among developers, it sometimes baffles me what is and what isn't packaged in Fedora.

I mean come on, how is it possible that there's no meson mode packaged for emacs on Fedora?

I mean, it's pretty obvious: if Fedora wants to be taken seriously as a developer platform, I think it's pretty obvious that this is a glaring omission, like no other! 🤓

@jamesh @pid_eins This. If you’re going to have to get some of your Emacs packages using Emacs’ built-in packaging system, you might as well get all of them that way. Hence, there’s little itch for potential packagers to scratch, here. It’s not like, say, Python, where you need to turn PyPI packages into RPMs because they’re dependencies of other applications.
