Hello Fedora,

for some time, I am using rawhide as my main system. I always struggled
with installation of non-rawhide packages: installing stable kernel,
downgrading to a non-broken package, reinstalling package which is no
longer available in repositories...

I thought that somebody had to write a tool for that. To my surprise, I
haven't really found anything useful. So I wrote a simple tool to automate
installation of packages from koji and other Fedora releases. The tool is
just a wrapper on top of a single dnf call (usually just --enablerepo,
--disablerepo magic):

https://github.com/TomasTomecek/fed-install

I have finally managed to open source the tool and make it a decent open
source project including integration tests, manpage, --help, sane (python3)
code.

Right now I'm not sure if it's worth to include such tool in Fedora
repositories and this is where I would love to get some feedback! So
please, have a look and let me know whether it's useful or not.


Tomas
