So my project (pveclib) was requested for el7/8 which means building with devtoolset-9.

With a spec file enabled for el7, the local rpmbuild's fail if you don't have devtoolset installed. The error message was less than helpful.

So if you can use fedpkg scratch-build devtoolset is preinstalled.

But if you have bugs in your spec file (and as a newbie, I often do) then you also get failures with less than helpful status.

FAILED: BuildError: error building package (arch ppc64le), mock exited with 
status 1; see build.log or root.log for more information

In my case I had to remove all the el7 bits from my spec file and test with rpmbuild to find the problem.

So having devtoolset installed locally would be helpful.

Thanks in advance

Do builds in mock, e.g.:

fedpkg --release epel7 mockbuild --no-cleanup-after
