==Creating the build system==
Build yourself a Rock8 system, probably minimal, but any level will do.
https://rockylinux.org/download/
Then login to the new system as "brianr" (or whatever user you created as part of the install.)
sudo dnf install epel-release
sudo dnf install epel-release
sudo /usr/sbin/usermod -G mock brianr
sudo /usr/sbin/usermod -G mock brianr
sudo dnf install glances
sudo dnf install glances
sudo yum install make rpm-build rpm-sig
sudo yum install make rpm-build rpm-sign
sudo dnf install xz
sudo dnf install xz
releasetypes are draft, prerelease or release. Note that a draft release is not visible unless you are logged in with write access to the repo.

=== Mockbuilding direct from the git repos ===
First create some sort of directory structure to hold the repo contents - this is what I use:<syntaxhighlight lang="shell">
cd ~
mkdir -p GITFiles
cd GITFiles
mkdir -p {smedev,smecontribs,smeserver}
</syntaxhighlight>and add in the common directory which provides an environment for the mockbuild .<syntaxhighlight lang="shell">
cd smecontribs
git clone https://src.koozali.org/smedev/common.git
cd smeserver
git clone https://src.koozali.org/smedev/common.git
</syntaxhighlight>we then can add in the repo we want to work on (you get the git clone link by browsing to [https://src.koozali.org/smecontribs/smeserver-mailstats https://src.koozali.org] and then (e.g.) https://src.koozali.org/smecontribs/smeserver-mailstats, or you can "guess" the URL!<syntaxhighlight lang="shell">
cd ~/GITFiles/smecontribs
git clone https://src.koozali.org/smecontribs/smeserver-mailstats
</syntaxhighlight>Then to mockbuild it locally you can:<syntaxhighlight>
cd ~/smecontribs/smeserver-mailstats
make mockbuild
</syntaxhighlight>after a lot of on screen messages you should finally see a positive outcome message.
If you want to pull down a complete set of repos for (e.g.) the core system, then by using one of the git-utils you can do this:<syntaxhighlight lang="shell">
cd ~/GITFiles/smeserver
git-list-all-org-repos.sh smeserver | xargs -I % sh -c 'git clone https://src.koozali.org/smeserver/%'
</syntaxhighlight>

Unfortunately it seems that the plague client needs things that Rocky is unable to provide (or at least I can't sort out!!). The perceived wisdom is to wait for the move from CVS to git which is expected for SME11.
