Really cool stuff, Jens!
FWIW, it seems to work really well on the Samsung Artik 5 board (and it's running Fedora 22).
I have noticed that your launcher does not set the "target.device" system property, which is needed here and there by some Kura system bundles. The way the launcher accept arguments right now, it is actually not possible to add new JAVA_OPTS from the command line directly, but tweaking the script so as there is a new JAVA_OPTS entry for -Dtarget.device works just fine, of course.

Hi,
I just wanted to let you know that I did tried out to bring Kura to Fedora 24 on ARM.
The changes I made are pushed to GitHub [1]. Please consider it a work in progress.
The main difference in deployment is that fact that the RPM files actually contains the payload data and not just a plain ZIP, calling an installer shell script. Files are correctly maintained by the package manager and can be diffed and rolled back.
There are a few issues with Fedora 24, mainly the missing support for systemd from Kura or the struggle with libudev.
Nevertheless the setup does create a startable kura version, which can also be installed inside a Fedora 24 docker container (the Dockerfile is in the same GitHub branch).
