A tool for downloading Fedora, ELN, and Centos Stream images.

By default it targets the Workstation edition of Fedora.



Usage examples:



`dl-fedora rawhide` : downloads the latest Fedora Rawhide Workstation Live iso



`dl-fedora 41 silverblue` : downloads the Fedora Silverblue iso



`dl-fedora respin kde` : downloads the latest KDE Live respin



`dl-fedora 40 server --arch aarch64` : will download the Server iso for armv8



`dl-fedora --run 41` : will download Fedora Workstation and boot the Live image with qemu-kvm.



`dl-fedora --check respin` : checks if there is a newer respin iso image

available.



`dl-fedora --local rawhide` : shows the current locally available image.

It can be combined with `--run` to quickly run the latest local image,

without a newer download.



`dl-fedora c9s` : downloads a Centos Stream 9 net installer.



By default dl-fedora downloads to `~/Downloads/`

(correctly the XDG user "DOWNLOADS" directory),

but if you create an `iso` subdirectory there (`~/Downloads/iso/`)

it will use that directory instead.



`dl-fedora` downloads the latest mirrored image redirected from

`download.fedoraproject.org` by default.

If you want to ensure getting the very latest image you can use `--latest`,

which will then download from `dl.fedoraproject.org` instead

_if_ your mirror is not synced yet.



If the image is already found to be downloaded

it will not be re-downloaded of course.

Curl is used to do the downloading: partial downloads will continue.



A symlink to the latest iso is also created:

eg for rawhide it might be `"Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-Rawhide-latest.iso"`.



It also tries to check the iso checksum and its gpg signature.
