If packaging them into the mock-rpm, yum/apt will keep them current. People with smaller bandwidth will appreciate this, because it will help avoid them having to download the stuff each time anew once they build a package. Also, I am not sure if the PackageGuideLines allow packages downloading documents from external sources. > > Also, I wonder, why FE5-mock/yum doesn't seem to process <grouplist> > > tags recursively anymore, which renders FE5-mock more or less > > nonfunctional ;) > > read the buildsys-list, additionally russell harrison posted the > explanation here earlier this week. I guess, you mean this: > To fix mock builds on a machine with yum 2.6+ find the line > "config_opts['buildgroup'] = 'build'" in each of your /etc/mock/*.cfg > files and change it to "config_opts['buildgroup'] = 'build > build-minimal build-base'". A very clear description of a work around on severe regression in mock/yum. I think it now should be your task to fix the bugs in the packages you maintain instead of pushing all users to work around the bugs. TIA.
