I am using the planex[1] tool to do massive rpm rebuild.
It use something like 'rpm -q --specfile' to predict the result
rpms, and generate a dependency tree. And then use this info to
build rpms in el7 mock one by one.

I then use the ''%_debugsource_template %{nil}' trick, which can
satisfy planex by now.
