Although the idea is nice, it doesn't seem like a good idea to force everyone to install mock and download all dependencies when we can go ahead and just build. Perhaps it is possible to have a variable to select mock, e.g.: make rpm-fedora MOCK_ROOT="epel-7-x86_64" and that would use mock to build. Or even a new target: make rpm-mock-fedora MOCK_ROOT="epel-7-x86_64" What do you think?
