You can only work on your test updates when the buildroot override is still active. In case you need to fix the test updates, you depend on the buildroot override again. The entire koji buildroot override business is just poor man's means to prevent upgrade-mad packagers from introducing incompatible builds whenever they like. > This is one part of my model which works but is not perfect.

Not for overrides, though, but for custom buildroots that would be independent from the primary dist buildroot. An interface to let packagers activate such buildroots, and releng to control whether to merge the new builds done in those buildroots with the primary dist. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
