[X2Go-Dev] Why are we not adding packages.x2go.org to mock and obs?

I have added the functionality and put it into production.

Changeset:
http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=buildscripts.git;a=commitdiff;hp=ecb5ef9f259533ed9829f438010e6d9ada2e7c3f&h=ad41adab1d626a83b31465d4f2002179fa0af7b3

With quite some nasty workarounds for mock...

I have also created /home/_x2go_shared_ with x2go-admin being the owner
and this directory being world-readable.
It contains another directory mock-config.

I have created symlinks $HOME/mock-config to
/home/_x2go_shared_/mock-config for users x2go-admin and jenkins.

I have added (empty) "extras" repositories for fedora 20, 21 and
rawhide, because they are now referenced for everything.

I will still need to write up automatic mock config file creation stuff
(and probably remove /home/_x2go_shared_ and replace $HOME/mock-config
with real directories, to which the automatically generated configs are
written), because manually creating 4 config files for each arch and
distribution and version (so 4 * #distros * #arches files) is a huge
waste of time.

It's also more complicated to implement, so I leave that "for a later date".

----

At the same time, I have fixed x2gomatebindings and used this as a test
of the deployed changes. It generally seems to work fine, but has
sparked a bug in x2goserver, discovered while building OpenSUSE 13.2
packages:

[   40s] Preparing...                         
########################################
[   40s]     file /etc/sudoers.d conflicts between attempted installs of
x2goserver-4.1.0.0-0.0x2go1.0.git20150316.1268.heuler.x86_64 and
sudo-1.8.10p3-2.1.6.x86_64
[   41s] exit ...

This is why one should *never* own files or directories that are owned
by other packages, even if it is convenient, "happens to work" and mock
is less strict about it.

Luckily, the fix is easy and I'll implement it "tomorrow".

----

All this said, the changes are still pretty new and untested for all the
other packages. Please note that build failures due to this are to be
expected - both real ones as well as false positives (i.e., bugs in
packages, but not the build script.) I'll fix those along the way.
