This is not a Fedora issue but a consequence of Fedora's core values.
You not
agree with it but "building from source" is so fundamental that it
does not
make sense to even start a discussion about it on fedora-devel.
I suggest you read up on the rationale behind that policy (which is
why I
linked the policy document in the first place).
I understand that missing components/features due to the source
requirement
are annoying but Fedora (and other distros) decided to take the "high
road"
here and actually fix stuff instead of shipping whatever upstream came
up with.
As someone who has been burned due to Fedora's goody little two shoes
policies, I'd kindly ask that Fedora take a hike and not package the
software at all.
That should be "little goody two shoes policies" . .
