My apologies.  Had I seen this sooner I would have helped in your effort. 
Would you like to collaborate to get this approved?  To be honest, I'm
primarily interested in getting this into the epel7/epel8 branches and not as
much in Fedora.

Reading through the comments in the earlier review, I think it would be best to
drop the services to automatically index directories.  I don't think the
services are necessarily required to make duc usable, as one can also:

* run it as a cron job

* run it by hand for a one-off index

* Use an index generated on a different host
