No, this package should have been in place ("in updates") at the same
time, the F-13 branch had been activated in Fedora's CVS.
This wasn't the case, and thus likely caused:
* maintainers wanting to "make mockbuild" F-13 package in CVS to hit
build failures (I did so) or to test-build against the wrong repository
(building against rawhide instead of F-13).
* maintainers having to waste their time on reimplementing local
versions of /etc/mock/fedora-13-<*>.cfgs (I did so).
* third parties (e.g. rpmfusion) building packages against the wrong
repos, because they didn't notice they need to branch and away from rawhide.
It's a mistake, ... mistakes happen, ...
The only things making me angry about this, is this particular mistake
(mock *.cfg not being in place in time) not having happened for the
first time and when taking into account the responsible person's
attitude and position in Fedora.
