What does run-zotero.sh do?
When I open run-zotero.sh, the first line is commented out.
# !/bin/sh
What does the script do? Do I un-comment it, and run it to install ZSA?
I read on another thread, there was no installation. Simply click on the executable -- what I am doing.

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Before commenting here, you should strongly consider starting a new discussion instead. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
I'm not very familiar with ZSA and the way it's bundled, but that file would only be relevant on Unix and Unix-like systems (which includes Mac systems these days).
The confusion between a "hash-bang" and a comment line was a big one!

though I don't know if that works on Fedora or only on debian-based flavors.
adamsmith: I have seen the thread. I will ask some feedback from another Fedora user, or I will try a local install, not to lose the update feature.
Side note: Seen today on the Fedora dev. list:
"Subject: About packaging Zotero standalone for Fedora." That's good news if it happens, from an end user perspective. I am not positive, but I guess there is a similar request on the Ubuntu side

Ubuntu packaging request here:

Debian here:

looks like debian might happen (and would then presumably automatically be included into ubuntu/mint etc.)
