Posts below accidentally sent off-list.

The first run of the git script had produced SOURCES and SPECS folders. 
I copied SOURCES and edited the specfile, deleting the line for 
ffserver, and ran my normal mock build.  I now have a set of f27 rpms, 
not including the plugins.  I suppose git fork might be an appropriate 
tool for this.  I don't know yet how to approach the plugin build - but 
I haven't been using  them much recently.

---------------

Those packages are now installed and running.  The old packages had been 
installed from the build folder with 'dnf install *64.rpm *arch.rpm' but 
'dnf remove...' didn't like the .rpm suffix, wanting the rpm -qa format 
without it.

I think building mythtv-plugins expects the mythtv packages to be in a 
local repo, which I once spent a lot of time trying to set up;  mock 
wants and can't see mythtv-devel and python-MythTV.

In fact the installed package is python2-MythTV
