FWIW I've packaged firehose in rpm form for Fedora (in the process finding various issues with the 0.1 tarball which warranted the 0.2 release I just did). In the hope that someone else here is a Fedora package reviewer, I've filed a packaging review request here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927421 (please review!) Thanks Dave
