Not sure if this is precisely what you mean, but I have a similar issue.
I run some production RedHat servers (4.x) and CentOS for development
and test instances. The Apache/PHP packages we require are not
available via repos as they need some specific Oracle, Perl and other
miscellaneous packages. I need to rebuild the packages because of
these dependencies.
To ease the process, I use the Sourcexx: lines in the rpm spec file to
automatically retrieve sources from their online homes. This works if
the URLs are relatively consistent. For example:
Source0: http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/httpd-%{version}.tar.gz
You could add another local server containing those packages then use
the Source line to specify the location of your local server.
