Jitsi video conferencing server packages - jitsi.org
In development.
Enable the repository using sudo dnf copr enable lcts/jitsi, then you can install packages using sudo dnf install <package>.
Thanks!
I just installed the master package from this Copr on a fresh F33 system. I got some warnings that might warrant attention:

Thanks for reporting, I’ll have a look.
How far with this?
I tried installing jitsi and I still got similar errors:

Still happening with jibri-8.0 in October 2022.

Of course this could be the correct file contents but the dnf/rpm scripts don’t like it.
@lcts Do you still work on this, any chance to update to current Jitsi version?
Hi @lcts
Is there any word on the status of this?
I attempted installation today on a Fedora 41 server and it failed completely due to correct versions of jicofo and jitsi-videobridge not being available in the repo.
I authored a relevant post on the Jitsi forums and poked around there, but it looks like very few people are attempting packaging for RPM.
I would like to offer whatever help I can!
Update:
Before quitting for the day I attempted something else based on your introductory comment:
Earlier today I tried installing “jitsi” – i.e. the metapackage. That failed.
Just right now I tried the individual packages one by one. They seem to work, so I will play with this a bit more in upcoming days.
However, I am still very concerned that this repo is 2 years behind the “state of the art” when it comes to Jitsi.
Please let us know of your plans (including disinterest, if so) in moving this repo forward.
Well, COPR is a kind of experimental repo of individual users. Lcts seems to have ceased the work on jitsi and probably on Fedora at all (there was a “non-responsive” query) . You can’t count on lcts ever working on Jitsi again.
I am still very interested in making Jitsi natively available on Fedora. But I definitely don’t have any time left until the end of the year.
