Cannot install in Fedora 34 #18

I saw the setup file and it seems to use EL8 like CentOS 8 when using Fedora any version. Error infos:

@jyxjjj Looks like the issue is caused because the package was built on an el8 system. Any package built on an el8 (at least rocky, cant speak for true RHEL8 currently) system with "python3" specified will also have "platform-python" quietly added as a dep too. Where fedora does not have a package "platform-python" the packaged rpm fails to install. With that said the module will still function in fedora as all its needs is a functions python3 install, and the workaround is to install from source.

git clone https://github.com/45Drives/cockpit-file-sharing.git
cd cockpit-file-sharing/
make install

A proper fix would be to build these modules on a fedora system, however that would require changes to auto build system and official fedora support is not highest priority at the moment.
