I’m happy to engage with the Firecracker team and get everyone together to talk 
through the issues.

We did used to package Firecracker for Amazon Linux (in an AL2 Extra), but it 
had literally zero users from our repos (lambda and others build their own). 
This could be due to just Firecracker by itself isn’t too useful without some 
other easy integration with something like containerd. That being said, I’d be 
interested in what use cases people have for it packaged in fedora.
