This is why I suggested that fedpkg needed the alias system instead of
mock in the EPEL discussion. fedpkg already has a config file format
for setting keys and values, so fedpkg should be extended to allow
people to set the distro prefix to search for with epel targets (e.g.
alma, rhel, centos-stream, etc.). Mock is basically the "dumb builder"
whereas fedpkg is the high-level packager Swiss Army Knife tool to get
stuff done.

Well, my opinion is quite the opposite:  IMO it would be better if
fedpkg/pyrpkg know *nothing* about mock configuration (location, etc.).

The fact that this logic is implemented in fedpkg/pyrpkg/rhpkg/etc. makes
this fix complicated.  And searching for the available Mock configs will become
super complicated once we move the configs from /etc/mock to /usr/share).

I agree here.  fedpkg/pyrpkg should be disconnected from mock as much as
possible.  This may not be achievable overnight, but it's something that I
think is worth pursuing.  It should be easy to adapt fedpkg to build backends
other than mock and likewise it should be easy to change mock out for
something else if we ever deem that necessary.

Also note that I for one have never used 'fedpkg mockbuild' for real.  I use
plain mock.  That said, I find the error message quite appropriate in Mock,
too.

Me either.  I run mock by itself before ultimately submitting builds using
fedpkg.

I have nothing against implementing it also in pyrpkg/fedpkg/etc., but
don't count with me on such a code duplication efforts :-)
