then you can use the "external repo" feature of koji - eg.
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Koji/ExternalRepoServerBootstrap
Then your koji can keep/build just your own rpms, but satisfy
depenedencies from eg. Fedora repos.

"Layered" build system

[Avi Kivity]

Hello,

I'd like to use koji as a layered build system.  I'm not sure that this is the 
right place, or that koji is the right tool.  If not, please let  me know what 
is.

We are building rpms against Fedora and CentOS/RHEL 7.  While all our 
dependencies are in Fedora, that's not the case for RHEL.  We would like to 
store our dependencies (updated rarely) as well as our product packages 
(updated often) in our local koji, but we'd like the rest of the distribution 
to be picked up from upstream, rather than having to import (and keep updating) 
all of our upstream dependencies into our local koji instance.

To make the case concrete, our non-upstream dependencies include gcc 5.3 
(included in Fedora 23, but not in RHEL), binutils and isl (dependencies of 
gcc), boost (we need a later version than is available), ninja-build, ragel, 
gdb, and pyparsing.

Currently, we just regenerate them each build.  Ideally we pull them from our 
local koji instance.

Avi
