You don't need to set up all the machines this way, only the one where
you actually write and test the SPEC file.

Anyway, a single file listing the 60 servers and a for loop in shell
should be plenty to setup the environment Tom shows ...

Well, actually, I'm fairly unhappy that Devrim's skipping the "make
check" step while building those RPMs (which he must do because it
won't work as root). So there seems to me to be plenty of argument
for fixing the build farm too.

But yeah, the immediate point is development of a new package's
specfile, which you'd hardly do on a server farm.

Some distributions set up their standard build areas under /usr/src to be
world writeable (sticky bit and all). You might find that that also works
for you. It might be easier to set up for the build farm.
