It is building again now.  I build the older version of mock and also
deleted the bad perl packages.  It looks like it might build a bunch of the
packages that it missed before now so I don't imagine I will have results
until tomorrow morning.  thanks for the help.

I assume the next step is to try to build something that can be installed.
I looked at pungi a bit but have not tried it yet.  It doesn't look too
complicated.
