I have a package build in https://copr.fedoraproject.org. My spec for rpkg is here. The build is failing with the following
Generated rpkg config:
[rpkg]
preprocess_spec = True

On my machine, running rpkg srpm
succeeds.
I searched around and it seems to me that COPR should be willing to download sources if they are distributed over https, which mine are.
Can I use the lookaside cache feature, somehow, for my sources?
Normally, downloading the qpid-proton file by https would work in Copr. It's done by rpmbuild (being invoked by rpkg) if there is %_disable_source_fetch 0
defined in rpm macros somewhere.
The problem is that one of the lines in the spec file is: %undefine _disable_source_fetch
which disables this behavior for the given spec file.
