What exactly do you mean by that? That's helpful, that's how you install a 
package for your arch. I don't have any issue with where Fedora is going, 
though I certainly do intend to weigh in on actual Changes, which this was 
not, to try to keep Fedora going in the right direction. Not every Change is 
good. Not every Change is bad.

That's not very kind.. Please don't be so hostile with members of the Fedora 
community. There are people around here who may not take these sorts of 
comments as I do, and I'm pretty sure people would waste time trying to do CoC 
violation nonsense with you.

I fail to see where there's anything about a Change in the email I responded 
to. I simply provided instructions for installing a package for the system's 
arch.

I like that Fedora gets me the latest tech as soon as it's reasonably stable. 
That's one of the many reasons I'm involved in the Fedora project. Further, I 
have no issue with systemd doing its job, being an init system. My problem is 
when everything else gets thrown under the systemd name.

I don't understand what you mean by that. If I'm not mistaken, the question 
was how to install a Fedora package for the host arch.
