I have a Fedora 25 VM and am following the instructions at https://snapcraft.io/docs/core/install-fedora
Unfortunately it fails:-

[alan@localhost ~]$ sudo dnf copr enable zyga/snapcore

@Conan_Kudo @morphis Do you know what’s going on there?

@popey @niemeyer the zyga/snapcore repository currently just contains packages for Fedora 24 (check https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/zyga/snapcore/) and not 25. We’re currently working on providing recent packages for all release from 24-26. The installation page needs an update once this happens and we will drop the COPR repository completely.

@popey If you want help testing what we’re currently working on, have a look at https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/mrmorph/snapcore/
