Johnny I really _really_ respect your former work on centos, but it
seems you don't take part on the real rebuild nowadays (probably
that's reason why you refer to rhel-4).
The above is nothing, and nobody can rebuild based on those scripts
and it's really far from the really required framework.
and please don't ask me to why. just to mention some very basic thing
where is the mock config files? and i can ask dozens of such questions
(what is did previously and i'm the only only one who send detail
description how to rebuild rhel-6...
