This last week, I have been working on getting a new kyua-cli package into the Fedora repositories. The obvious goal is to reach more users by providing an easy mechanism for Fedora consumers to install Kyua. Just now, the package has been pushed to the updates-testing repository, which means it is available for testing before it gets moved to the regular updates repository.
So, go ahead, issue yum install kyua-cli (or use any graphical frontend) and start playing with Kyua! Do not hesitate to report any problems that you encounter, or to give karma if the package works fine for you. You may need to enable the updates-testing repository first though.
One thing to note is that none of the packages that are Kyua-related (atf, kyua-cli and lutok) install their test suite as they should be doing (yet). This is because the ideal place for such tests would be under /usr/tests/ as we do in NetBSD, but this directory is not allowed by the Linux Standard Base guidelines. While I think what the best way to resolve this is, I'm going to modify the packages to place the tests elsewhere in the meantime (most likely somewhere under /usr/libexec/)... so expect some -tests packages soon!
