I'm trying to compile Canon's Linux driver for my Canon MG5550 printer,

When I consult <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package>
(dated 23 May 2016)
I'm told to dnf-install fedora-packager, but this brings up
[root@william tim]# dnf install fedora-packager
Error: package fedora-packager-0.5.10.7-1.fc24.noarch requires mock, 
  but none of the providers can be installed
and similarly
[root@william tim]# dnf install mock
Error: package mock-1.2.17-1.fc24.noarch requires systemd-container,
  but none of the providers can be installed

Is this because I am running Fedora-24 beta?
Must I wait for 3 days?
(Oh dear, I see it has been postponed until June 14.)



Isn't it as simply as....

[egreshko@f24b ~]$ dnf whatprovides *bin/rpmbuild
Last metadata expiration check: 0:00:33 ago on Sat Jun  4 21:50:19 2016.
rpm-build-4.13.0-0.rc1.27.fc24.x86_64 : Scripts and executable programs used to
                                      : build packages

Followed by the install of "rpm-build"?
