Koji+fedpkg: download sources to build SRPM

Hi, In order for koji to build from git, it must retrieve sources from the lookaside cache. I believe that's the only reason the 'fedpkg' package is required in a build target's 'srpm-build' group. The default fedpkg.conf installed by the RPM is configured with the Fedora lookaside server URLs. Of course that doesn't work in my shop, where we run our own koji infra. I hacked koji to pull the host's /etc/fedpkg.conf file into the mock chroot, the same way koji does out of the box with /etc/hosts. The patch is attached. Koji and the Fedora packaging tools have been great tools for us. We're using koji, mock, sigul, fedpkg and other components. It's been a little frustrating at times, though, frequently dealing with what seems like configuration data that's hardcoded into the source. I'm guessing that addressing that is low-priority, since the main consumers of these tools are the users of the Fedora build infrastructure. I occasionally get the bug to 'fix' stuff. Most recently, I set up a subclassed fedpkg tool that works with the peculiarities of our configuration (configuration locations, branch nomenclature, etc.). It turned out to be a bit hairy, and it wouldn't be tough to fix fedpkg. Would patches be welcome? It would be pretty valuable to have private instances supported a little better.
