In my local Koji deployment I have one particular package (mdct-aos-flash) whose spec %build has “%{__python3} -m unittest discover” so that my builds will fail if any of the unit tests fail.  This has worked well for some time now.  Recently I added another unit test which requires another locally built package (python3-mdct) to assist with the test.  My first build submission failed and I immediately realized that I of course needed to add this other package as a BuildRequires.  I did that and was surprised to find the build still failing.  The root.log shows:

 

DEBUG package_manager.py:77:  ['/usr/bin/yum-builddep', '--installroot', '/var/lib/mock/f21-build-1274-3319/root/', '/var/lib/mock/f21-build-1274-3319/root//builddir/build/SRPMS/mdct-aos-flash-3.1-1.git.5.401b5db.fc21.src.rpm']

Now I’m stumped.  Koji builds python3-mdct for f21 so I would expect that it’s just available to be pulled in as needed.  I have Koji configured to use our local mirrors of Fedora as external-repos because we certainly depend on much of that, but I wouldn’t think it necessary to do so for our own repo.  My understanding of the external-repos is to give Koji access to rpms which it may need, but itself did not build.

 

Is my understanding wrong or have I missed a step here?
