Koji writes out it's own mock configuration files though. As a result,
/etc/mock/koji/*.cfg (per buildroot) uses the mock default -n/-N. Either
one is incompatible with the other, and I have not found an alternative.

No setting in any epel*-*.cfg in /etc/mock/. can change that wrt. to
what Koji executes. Instead, I've removed the -n/-N in
/etc/mock/site-defaults.cfg
