Exactly, thanks.

Right.

Perhaps.  I'm not sure whether it wants to be a different script or
not.  We already have some linux-specific flights which suppress most
of the jobs.  Maybe it would be better done with some ifs in the
existing script, or something.

If you do invent a make-fedora-flight you will have to factor out the
build parts of make-flight into a separate sub-script or a function in
a sourced file, or something.
