If you are working on the buildinstall scripts, you can pass the
--localscripts option to buildinstall to force it to use the scripts
from the current directory rather than downloading the anaconda RPM
from the repo you specify, unpacking it, and using the scripts from
there.

Great idea.

Isn't this the same as pointing --updates at the working dir?

Probably, but the way buildinstall works is still part black magic to me. I wanted something to skip the whole finding anaconda, unpacking it, and using scripts from there. I don't have an updated anaconda RPM that I could point
to anyway, nor did I want to make one.


--updates doesn't take a new rpm, it takes a path that has updated scripts. I'll look a the patch again and maybe collapse the functionality so that both your new option and --updates uses the same code paths. There is already enough magic going on here.
