package.sh: add fedora
Fedora builds Cura by using ```mock```, thereby enabling it to build RPMs
for every distribution that ```mock``` has a configuration file for. In
pratice this means that Fedora can build RPMs for several versions of
Fedora, CentOS and RHEL.
Cura can be built under a regular user account, there is no need to have
root privileges. In fact, having root privileges is very much discouraged.
However, the user account under which the build is performed needs to be
a member of the 'mock' group.
Specify only 'fedora' to build RPMs for the current system.
./package.sh fedora
Additionally specify any number of mock configurations
(ls -1 /etc/mock/*.cfg) to build RPMs for those configurations.
./package.sh fedora fedora-21-x86_64.cfg fedora-21-i386.cfg ...
Since only the filename of the mock configurations is used, this
also works:
./package.sh fedora /etc/mock/fedora-21-x86_64.cfg ...

+Fedora builds Cura by using ```mock```, thereby enabling it to build RPMs for

+
+Cura can be built under a regular user account, there is no need to have root
+privileges. In fact, having root privileges is very much discouraged.
+
+However, the user account under which the build is performed needs to be a
+member of the 'mock' group. This is accomplished as follows:
+
+```bash
+sudo usermod -a -G mock "$(whoami)"
+```
+
+To install the software that is required to build Cura, run the following
+commands:
+
+```bash
+sudo yum install -y git rpmdevtools rpm-build mock arduino
+
+# Ensure that the Arduino tools can be found by the build
+sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/arduino/hardware/tools/avr
+sudo ln -sf /usr/bin /usr/share/arduino/hardware/tools/avr/bin
+
+```
+
+To build and install Cura, run the following commands:
+
+```bash
+# Get the Cura software, only required once
+git clone https://github.com/daid/Cura.git Cura
+
+# Build for the current system
+cd Cura
+./package.sh fedora
+
+# Install on the current system
+sudo yum localinstall -y scripts/linux/fedora/RPMS/Cura-*.rpm
+```
+
+Examples of building other configurations:
+
+```bash
+# Build for Fedora rawhide x86-64 and i386
+./package.sh fedora fedora-rawhide-x86_64.cfg fedora-rawhide-i386.cfg
+
+# Since only the basename of the mock configurations is used, this also works:
+./package.sh fedora /etc/mock/fedora-21-x86_64.cfg /etc/mock/fedora-rawhide-i386.cfg
