In order to build modules, you need component packages from which to build them, and it's better to have them locally available. This page describes where to download a set of packages which we use to build modules in tests.
 
=== Fedora 24 Beta ===
 
As a base set of packages, we use the Beta of Fedora 24 at the moment (previously, we used the Alpha, but it shouldn't make much of a difference).
 
You can download whole trees recursively from:
 
* x86_64 binary packages: http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/test/24_Beta/Server/x86_64/os/
* source packages: http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/test/24_Beta/Server/source/tree/
 
Using <code>wget</code>, this would download them to the current directory in appropriate subdirectories:
 
<pre>wget -r --no-parent -P fedora-24-beta-x86_64 --no-host-directories --cut-dirs 9 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/test/24_Beta/Server/x86_64/os/
wget -r --no-parent -P fedora-24-beta-src --no-host-directories --cut-dirs 9 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/test/24_Beta/Server/source/tree/</pre>
 
=== "Esoteric" Shells ===
 
As an additional set of packages, we use a couple of shells. They aren't grouped together like that ordinarily, so we download the packages directly from koji:
 
<pre>for arch in x86_64 src; do
    d="fedora-24-shells-$arch"
    (mkdir -p "$d" && cd "$d" &&
      for shell in aesh bash dash fish ksh mksh mosh tcsh yash zsh; do
          _archspec="--arch $arch"
          if [ "$arch" != "src" ]; then
              _archspec="$_archspec --arch noarch"
          fi
          koji download-build --latestfrom=f24 $_archspec "$shell"
      done)
done</pre>
 
Afterwards, we need create the repository metadata:
 
<pre>for d in fedora-24-shells-*; do
    createrepo "$d"
done</pre>
