→Queueing the Build Request
To queue the build request on the main koji server, used for primary architecture builds (i386 and x86_64):
# Issue the command: <code>koji build ''dist-f14f17'' --scratch ''yourSRPM''</code>#* ''dist-f14f17'' (called the ''Target'') instructs koji to build the package using the packages available in the Fedora 14 17 distribution, and prepare it for inclusion in that distribution. '''Note:''' for versions of Fedora prior to f16, use ''dist-fXX'' where ''XX'' is the release.#* The ''--scratch'' option causes koji to build the package but not tag it for the target (i.e., not to include it in Fedora 14). To perform a build that will be passed to Bodhi for distribution, substitute <code>--rebuild</code> for <code>--scratch</code> and use a git URL for the package (''do not'' do this until you have passed the [[:fedora:Package Review Process|package review]] and [[:fedora:How to get sponsored into the packager group|sponsor]] procedures!).
# You can either follow the progress of the build by leaving the command running, or you may interrupt the <code>koji</code> command by pressing Ctrl-C once the message "this may be safely interrupted" is printed. Record the ''taskID'' printed for future reference.
