Ok, so there is an interest :)
I went trough the relevant GitHubs and pondered if anything else should
be done before proceeding; I would appreciate some comments on what to
do next:
bemenu: I submitted (and got accepted) man pages for the binaries.
From the discussion [1] it seems that the author does not yet consider
it release-ready. Are we happy with packaging arbitrary pre-release
commits? Note that a single 0.1.0 release exists, but the current master
has additional fixes applied.
redshift: This already exists in Fedora, but without wlroots support.
There is open PR [2] to get the support in upstream, but the maintainer
seems to not respond at this time. Should I wait for it to get merged,
submit the single commit as a patch to existing Fedora package,
or just package the fork as alternative/conflicting package?
wl-clipboard: Lo and behold, there is already a Fedora package [3] for
it, but it only has builds for rawhide for some reason. Here we should
perhaps reach to the maintainer and coordinate for possible inclusion to
sway module. As a side note, IIRC the packaged snapshot have some issues
(using deprecated wayland protocols or something like that),
so an update to newer snapshot might be in order.
