Hi,

I think this is a good idea, because overall I tend to avoid implicit
or invisible rules. And the man says "mock - build SRPMs in a
chroot" so having a minimal tree in which you can chroot and find
tools to build SRPMs sounds like a neat idea :)

As a mock user on RHEL and CentOS systems, I haven't seen any mention
of EPEL in the FPC ticket and minutes. I may be wrong, but I'm pretty
sure I got mock and the @buildsys-build group from the EPEL repos. You
might want to enable such a change for the next EPEL too, or at least
take it into account.

I don't have access to those machines right now.
