Description of problem: older versions of fedpkg honored ~/.koji/config which allowed me to overwrite the global config with p.e. secondary arch settings by linking ~/.koji/ppc-config to ~/.koji/config Nowadays fedpkg has /etc/koji.conf hardcoded and secondary arch maintainers need to replace /etc/koji.conf with custom configs as 'fedpkg --arches ppc ppc64' doesn't work either Steps to Reproduce: 1. ln -s ~/.koji/ppc-config ~/.koji/config 2. cd to a fedora package checkout directory (p.e. fedpkg clone ed ) 3. fedpkg build --scratch --target f17 -> package gets built on the primary archs 4. fedpkg build --scratch --archs ppc ppc64 --target f17 -> some weird error about your home directory not being a repository
4. the weird error happens only if you also have --srpm some-valid-srpm on the commandline, if you've changed into a package checkout directory, the package gets built on the primary archs again instead of ppc
Two bugs here. Bug 1 (not reading ~/.koji/config) is a rpkg bug, fixed in commit fba6396a959a03453856e2ef306116c344bb874d Bug 2 (the error about not being in a repository) is a fedpkg bug, part of the routine that checks to see if the user has processed the branch renames yet in their checkout. I've fixed it to pass if there is no repo in question, commit 467a8d218dcf29e2dff571abca5b2b652ffb8e1b
