Notable problem if we switched from CentOS to RHEL in Mock configuration
is that several build dependencies will be missing.  RHEL 8 doesn't e.g.
ship e.g. the *-devel packages (this problem, if I understand it correctly,
is slowly worked-around by CentOS-only packages).

NB there already is such equivalent configuration,
'mock -r rhelepel-8-x86_64'.  But RH-subscribed :-) Fedora is needed.
