Upcoming Fedora 33 #41

Since Fedora 33 is going to add BTRFS as defaults. Could you add the requirements to run in Fedora in Readme? I will be happy to test.

Package names are identical to arch in this case it seems

I think you have run into permission issues with snapper. If so, please refer to the snapper man page on how to allow privileges for a normal user.

PERMISSIONS
       Non-root users can be allowed to use a configuration by setting ALLOW_USERS or ALLOW_GROUPS in the config file. For all operations to
       work, the user must also be able to read and access the .snapshots directory inside the subvolume. The .snapshots directory must be
       owned by root and must not be writable by anybody else.

       Here are some methods how to achieve that:

       •   Make the directory accessible for everyone:

           chmod a+rx .snapshots

       •   Make the directory accessible for a group the user belongs to, e.g.:

           chown :users .snapshots

       •   Make the directory accessible for the user using ACLs, e.g.:

           setfacl -m u:tux:rx .snapshots

       The last method can be performed by snapper, see the SYNC_ACL setting in snapper-configs(5).

Out here, for me, snapper-gui works perfect with a normal user.
