A major part of hacking on the OS is being able to test patches. Right now this is a very manual process with e.g.
fedpkg localon the side and then copying intooverrides/rpm(or sending them to an existing VM and doingoverride replace). It'd be cool if we could do e.g.:This would: download the SRPM, unpack it, apply the patch,
rpmdev-bumpspec, build, and add the built RPMs to theoverrides/rpmdir. Would be easier to require the container image to be based on the same buildroot though so we don't have to usemock. This is the case for FCOS at least :).
