I'm pretty sure I said to do that a while ago, like I did when
testing the trivial patch that I didn't expect to cause such trouble.
You probably did say so ;)
I come from a different culture and experience. I am not as conversant
in Fedorian as I should be. So I tend to misunderstand what is plain
to you all.
From my experience, installing (something like) devtoolset on Fedora
was not an outlandish idea, Apparently it is.
It's not about devtoolset. Installing CentOS 7 RPMs on Fedora rawhide
is outlandish. It won't work in general, because the CentOS RPMs have
dependencies on CentOS packages, and Fedora has different versions.
CentOS and Fedora are different distros.
So installing a centos 7 VM instance on my local power8 seems like a
better option.
Or just use mock, as has been said several times.
Simply 'fedpkg --release epel7 mockbuild' in the dist-git repo will do
everything correctly for you.
