On Fedora the packages are named differently, `ffmpeg-free` out of Fedora's own
repositories is enough because Dikte only ever takes the audio track of a video
file, and `ydotool` takes one step more: it ships as a system service, whose
socket stays root-owned and out of your session's reach, so auto-paste fails
with the daemon running. Point it at the path the client already looks at and
hand the socket over:
```sh
sudo dnf install pipewire-utils wl-clipboard ydotool ffmpeg-free python3-pyqt6
sudo mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/ydotool.service.d
printf '[Service]\nExecStart=\nExecStart=/usr/bin/ydotoold --socket-path=%s/.ydotool_socket --socket-own=%s:%s\n' \
"$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR" "$(id -u)" "$(id -g)" \
| sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/ydotool.service.d/override.conf >/dev/null
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable --now ydotool
```
On Ubuntu/GNOME X11, recording uses PulseAudio and clipboard/paste use the X11
tools instead:

Fedora'da paket adları farklı, Fedora'nın kendi depolarındaki `ffmpeg-free`
yetiyor çünkü Dikte video dosyasının yalnızca ses izini alıyor, `ydotool` da
bir adım fazla istiyor: sistem servisi olarak geliyor, soketi de root'a ait
kalıp oturumun erişemediği yerde durduğu için servis çalışırken bile otomatik
yapıştırma tutmuyor. Soketi istemcinin zaten baktığı yola al ve sahipliğini
devret:
```sh
sudo dnf install pipewire-utils wl-clipboard ydotool ffmpeg-free python3-pyqt6
sudo mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/ydotool.service.d
printf '[Service]\nExecStart=\nExecStart=/usr/bin/ydotoold --socket-path=%s/.ydotool_socket --socket-own=%s:%s\n' \

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

Ubuntu/GNOME X11 için kayıt PulseAudio üzerinden, pano ve yapıştırma ise X11
araçlarıyla çalışır:

# question as whether the unit is up: Fedora ships ydotool as a system service
# only, and its socket stays root-owned at mode 600, so there the daemon can be
# running while every paste is refused. The socket file outlives the daemon,
