Well, I'm building for people running EPEL, and I didn't see this isn't
with packages that depend on anything scl.  The scl stuff needs to be
installed initially, e.g. in copr root parameters, if you're going to
build scl packages at some stage.

(I don't understand why software collections aren't allowed so that more
packages could be contributed.)

Of course.  I was thinking in terms of (lack of?) response to a bug
report which might get someone to look to it.
