Just copy the files to the SOURCES folder directly, e.g.:
vrpmbuild/SOURCES
# cd rpmbuild/SOURCES
# git clone -b dist-vz7-u15
https://src.openvz.org/scm/ovzt/fedora-32-x86_64-ez.git
# cp fedora-32-x86_64-ez/os* fedora-32-x86_64-ez/*packages .

Also make sure that there no other files in rpmbuild/SOURCES, otherwise the
template can pick up them.
Great, with this a clone of the default branch (dist-vz7-u12) of
fedora-30-x86_64-ez results in an rpm that allows creating a bootable
fedora-30 container. It is only lacking the network-scripts package, so
networking does not start automatically at boot time before bringing up
the new container's interface manually and installing the rpm. I expect
this should be easily fixable by adding "network-scripts" to the
"os_packages" source.
The fedora-32-x86_64-ez dist-vz7-u15 source seems to contain a problem.
Container creation fails, because the cache creation step fails for "repo
'base2'". Running vzpkg create cache we get:
# vzpkg create cache fedora-32-x86_64
Creating OS template cache for fedora-32-x86_64 template
Cache was expired
18 files removed
base0 5.0 MB/s | 63 MB 00:12
base1 4.6 MB/s | 25 MB 00:05
base2 876 B/s | 319 B 00:00
Error: Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'base2'
Error: /usr/share/vzyum/bin/yum failed, exitcode=1
The root of the problem is that template authors are quite lazy to declare
every source file separately in spec, so the spec looks for sources in a rather
tricky way:
%define sources_lst() \
%((cd %_sourcedir;\
s=1;\
for tmpl in %1; do\
sources=$tmpl"_*";\
for file in $sources; do\
echo Source$s: $file;\
s=$((s+1))\
done;\
done))\
%nil
%define templates_list() %((cd %_sourcedir; for f in *_packages; do echo -n "${f%_*}
"; done))
The latter command scans _sourcedir recursively so it finds *_packages files
even in subfolders. But the former macro doesn't look into subfolders so at
least os* files are missing.

I guess there are no docs, but the process is rather simple - clone the repo,

I am evidently still missing something. Building and installing an rpm
ran without errors:
# cd rpmbuild/SOURCES
# git clone -b dist-vz7-u15
https://src.openvz.org/scm/ovzt/fedora-32-x86_64-ez.git
# cd
# rpmbuild -bb rpmbuild/SOURCES/fedora-32-x86_64-ez/fedora-32-x86_64-ez.spec
# yum localinstall
rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/fedora-32-x86_64-ez-7.0.0-1.vl7.noarch.rpm
However, the resulting rpm contains no os files:
# rpm -ql fedora-32-x86_64-ez-7.0.0-1.vl7.noarch
/vz/template/fedora/32/x86_64/config/app/*/default
/vz/template/fedora/32/x86_64/config/app/*/default/description

/vz/template/fedora/32/x86_64/config/app/*/default/summary
/vz/template/fedora/32/x86_64/config/app/*/default/version
and container generation of course fails:
# prlctl create F32 --vmtype ct --ostemplate fedora-32-x86_64
Creating the Container...
Failed to register the CT: PRL_ERR_VZCTL_OPERATION_FAILED (Details: Error:

What am I missing?

Subject: [Users] Fedora-3x template packages
Hello,
https://src.openvz.org/projects/OVZT has entries for Fedora-30 and
Fedora-32. However, the most recent rpm package available in the normal
OpenVZ 7.0 repository is fedora-23-x86_64-ez
Does documentation exist on how to build a template from the available
sources?
Peter S.
