buildroots.xml and packages have to be in same location?

[Dan Williams]

Seth,

Using your mach SRPM and buildroots file, I had to actually pull down all the 
packages locally and place the buildroots.xml file in the same dir as the 
packages, then run createrepo on it before it would take (obviously pointing 
mach to the local files as the yumsource).

It seems that (unless I'm mistaken) the buildroots.xml file needs to be in any 
repo that I'd point mach to?  Is that correct?  Is there no way of keeping the 
buildroots.xml file locally, or at some other site, separate from the actual 
packages?

Anyway, once everything was in the same place it seemed to work fine.

Note: This FC3 (well, Aurora "corona" on Sparc, which is == FC3).

mach: mach-0.4.6.1-0.fdr.0.20050314.000733
yum: yum-2.2.0-0.fc3
