afraid I don't see the point. You'll never need it there. If you want to see what the requires were that got installed, you could do a "rpm - qRp buildsys-minimal.*.rpm"
Yeah, I had never created an RPM with an empty %files section, so I thought I needed something to go there. Silly me.
Attached is a new specfile that creates three binary RPMs: buildsys-base, buildsys-minimal, and buildsys-build. This one doesn't include the specfile as payload and is somewhat cleaned up.
I'm just wondering... why does mock need three different sets of packages? I can see mach wants that because it's more than just a "build this package in a chroot for me" but in case of mock, wouldn't simply one set of minimal build requirements be enough? /me must be missing something :)
actually, you're not missing anything. It's a leftover that I had forgotten and that we can, for all intents and purposes, abandon.
