The versions of the "autokey" utility shipped with Fedora 27 are not up-to-date. These versions no longer work out-of-the-box on a standard Fedora 27 installation. Please start building the current releases of "autokey", which *do* work without compromise, and which are available at the new site of the upstream project. A critical reason for using this package is its ability to execute a script and to simulate keystrokes in the user's GUI. The out-of-date version currently packaged for Fedora 27 supports neither Wayland nor Python 3 scripts-- its usefulness is severely hindered on Fedora 27. The old versions still shipped with Fedora (listed below) are tracking an abandoned upstream project whose last commit dates to 2012: autokey-common-0:0.90.4-11.fc27.noarch autokey-gtk-0:0.90.4-11.fc27.noarch autokey-qt-0:0.90.4-11.fc27.noarch This project has moved to GitHub, where the current version, 0.94.0, is usable: https://github.com/autokey/autokey
autokey-0.94.0-1.fc27 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 27. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-ff5a888f5a
