As an update to this issue:

@Josh1147582 has created and submitted the JFLAP repkg.

Logisim is another package that is available for a repkg.

Slowly, but surely, this issue is being worked on. Since 3rd party repositories are now a thing, PyCharm can now be installed through Gnome Software.

[Tjzabel]

Pycharm, JFLAP, and logisim have all been added.

However, I am not sure what "add upgrade path" means

Update from meeting:

• Most of this is done
• We're using the third-party repos that come with Fedora where possible
• WIP

Update

So, this is essentially done. I've gone through and updated the source files, and added what I can as dnf packages.
This issue will be getting another major update once the software packager gets developed, as I will be moving the packages around based on what works best for achieving the best work flow.

[Tjzabel]

The only thing I can think of to improve this process, is move away from the getopt in the postinstall script, and instead create individual scripts for each of the majors. This would simplify the layout of the postinstall script, and allow for a little more modularity.

Conclusion

At this point in time, I feel the tigeros-scripts package is as up-to-date as it can be.

I am going to close this issue and open another one with the consideration to look into splitting the postinstall script into one script per major to allow for a little more modularity.

Reopening Issue

Although scripts packages have been updated, the core portion of this issue has not yet been addressed.

Next Steps

The goal of the scripts package is to be able to install all tigeros packages through dnf. So, for tigeros-repkg-jflap, we should be able to install with dnf install.

@ct-martin is going to update this issue with a more proper name to reflect these changes.
