==== Local Packages ====

I'm going to have to rebuild a lot of packages. The macros I've been using in spec files
to add distribution tags don't play nicely with development releases. This is easily enough
fixed but since the spec files are changing, I'll be rebuilding for all supported releases,
not just development, when I populate the repository for Fedora development.

==== Network Access in Mock ====

When trying to build `perl-HTTP-SimpleLinkChecker` in `mock`, the test suite failed because
it couldn't connect to `perl.org`. This is because `/etc/resolv.conf` in the buildroot contains:
{{{
nameserver 192.168.1.1
}}}
I don't happen to have a nameserver at that IP address, so I added to `/etc/mock/defaults.cfg`:
{{{
config_opts['files'] = { \
        "/etc/resolv.conf":"""search intra.city-fan.org
nameserver 127.0.0.1""" \
} }}}
Problem solved.
