While testing rpm in a "sterile" environment where no distribution specific rpm
configuration is present has its value, there are cases where integration with
an actual distribution such as Fedora may reveal bugs in otherwise innocent
looking patches, such as the just-discovered #3115.
The test-suite (mktree script) should gain an option that installs rpm into the
`/usr` prefix (instead of the default `/usr/local`) so that it reflects rpm's
actual deployment better, specifically so that any distribution-provided macros
(like redhat-rpm-config on Fedora) are effective during the test-suite. Then,
we can add another CI job that runs the test-suite against such an image (or
something of that sorts). Details to be figured out.
