Description: Simple named pipe management utility
Fedora Account System Username: ferdi265

Hi!

This is a package review request for pipectl, a named pipe management utility that can be used to e.g. control a longer-lived program using short commands from elsewhere in the system without needing a complex IPC mechanism such as UNIX domain sockets.

It's a convenient little tool that is an optional dependency for the Wayland screen mirroring tool wl-mirror (also by me). pipectl has already been packaged by most other major distros, but not by Fedora.

This is my first package in Fedora and as such I would need a sponsor for this package. I am the upstream maintainer for both pipectl and wl-mirror and also maintain the Arch Linux AUR packages pipectl-git and wl-mirror-git, as well as the Debian wl-mirror package (also via a sponsor).

The package already builds and works in COPR, as can be seen here: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/ferdi265/pipectl/

Thanks for considering this request,
Ferdinand Bachmann
