Just run 'make mockbuild' from the appropriate branch. But the doc at that place doesn't mention "make mockbuild", but mentions "make i386, make x86_64, or make ppc" instead ;-) BTW: when jeremy in the doc mentioned to build stuff from both the devel and the F-7 branch locally he afaics meant to do that when the spec files in both branches differ. Otherwise there really is no point in rebuilding them locally without mock or different installs afaics.
