So my project (pveclib) was requested for el7/8 which means building with devtoolset-9.
With a spec file enabled for el7, the local rpmbuild's fail if you don't have devtoolset installed. The error message was less than helpful.
So if you can use fedpkg scratch-build devtoolset is preinstalled.
But if you have bugs in your spec file (and as a newbie, I often do) then you also get failures with less than helpful status.
FAILED: BuildError: error building package (arch ppc64le), mock exited with status 1; see build.log or root.log for more information
In my case I had to remove all the el7 bits from my spec file and test with rpmbuild to find the problem.
So having devtoolset installed locally would be helpful.
Thanks in advance
