This may be a dumb question/response, but isn't mock made to handle this
scenario? My understanding is that it builds a chroot environment
(/var/lib/mock/[branch-arch]) and builds your package there, so even if
you don't run Rawhide, for example, you can test a build on it. This
might make a good addition to the Wiki for us new Extras packagers.
