This won't ultimately achieve what you want, though, because c-icap-
0.6.3-2.el10_1 is already in an update:
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2025-5227245027
builds can only be in one update at a time, and you can't remove the
last build from an existing update. So if a build is the sole package
in an existing update, it's 'trapped' in that update. If you actually
need a multi-package update, you have to do a bump/rebuild in the side
tag - you have to do a c-icap-0.6.3-3.el10_1 build in the side tag.
Basically, if you first do a 'normal' build and create an update (or
one is automatically created for you, on a Rawhide-like branch), then
realize you *actually* needed to do a multi-package side tag update,
you'll have to do a bump/rebuild. You can only 'escape' if you did the
build but didn't create an update (or have one auto-created).
Aside from that, though, Benson and Tom are right: after creating a
side tag you either do builds to it with `fedpkg build --target` or tag
existing builds in with `koji tag-build`. `add-pkg` is not the right
thing to use here, I'm not sure where you came across it.
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Package_Update_Guide/#multiple_packages
is the doc for this.
