This is because coot uses guile-gui, which along with guile-gtk is deprecated, no longer has a home and cannot be included/supported with fedora releases. So extensions which depend on it (like add strand) will fail, while those that don't (like add helix) run OK.
I'm hoping that eventually these extensions will be updated to use guile-gnome (Paul?). If these functions are important to you, you'll have to use one of Paul's binaries or build it yourself.
