Thanks for proposing this task. Unfortunately the SSSD team isn't interested in including and maintaining such a tool in Fedora.

However, there are other options to get this package in Fedora. You could add it yourself, for that I recommend you to read the Packaging Review Process (https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Package_Review_Process/). You could also ask in the fedora development list (devel.org) if somebody is interested in including the package and maintaining it.

I'm closing this bugzilla. Please feel free to reopen it if you find somebody interested in doing this work.
