I asked Jeroen (aka kanarip) on IRC some weeks ago, because he is a
package administrator of the Fedora cyrus-imapd package:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/cyrus-imapd/
He said, that the Fedora people don't like his spec file, because it
has too many conditionals for other operating systems.
And he does not want to do the work twice.

Jeroen is also the release engineer for Cyrus IMAP upstream:

Since Kolab Systems does the work upstream in Roundcube as well, they
can use a prerelease. Similar situation as with Cyrus.
Best guess would be to use the tar.gz from
https://obs.kolabsys.com/package/show/Kolab:Development/roundcubemail

By the way, my email was not so much targeted at integrating Kolab
directly into distributions, but to create a release of Kolab on OBS.
Kolab as part of distributions is another interesting subject. I am
wondering myself to invest some time to get Kolab into Fedora,
probably that will happen not this year anymore:
