With the current rootfs, I am now able to build binutils simply with: $ rpmbuild -ba /path/to/SPECS/binutils.spec I do this inside a (non-tracked) directory on my system. I suggest that we try keeping these packages separate from the rootfs, but the packages themselves can be installed into the rootfs if they are needed to populate build deps for other packages we need, up until we have a minimal buildroot for koji building. The question then is where to stash the SRPMs/RPMs. It might be that they may aswell live inside the git repo in a separate subdir. Yea, it uses space, but we're not the Linux kernel, we're not really causing that much traffic as there aren't too many people cloning this repo.
