It turns out that some kind soul added buildsys-build and buildsys-macros packages to the Fedora buildgroups repository. That considerably simplifies setting up a mock buildroot for RHEL, much simpler than my previous entry. All you need to do now to create a mock buildroot for, say, RHEL4 is:

• Create a local yum repository with the RHEL4 rpms (as described previously)
• Download the simplified mock config file and point the [base] repository at your local yum mirror.
