What problem does your feature solve?

What alternatives are there?

• Produce basic spec file to build stellar-core for Fedora/RHEL/CentOS
  • Target Fedora
  • Target CentOS 7
  • Target RHEL (blocked by deps ATM)
• Automate into Copr (mostly complete)
• Produce doco for forks wishing to achieve same (part complete)

Initial version, split into two where "stellar-core-unstable" skips make check stage and sources from master, veruses "stellar-core" (stable) executing make check.

In addition...

• Trigger stable by release and unstable by push (both on push ATM)
• Obviate GNU Parallel dependency as not readily available in Fedora/CentOS and unlikely to ever be provided in Red Hat due to historic naming conflict. Use less pretty xargs.
• Obviate pandoc dependency as whilst doco is important it pulls in requirement for entire Haskell stack which whilst available for Fedora/CentOS is unlikely to ever be avaialable for RHEL.
• Investigate RHEL UBI
