Instructions for building fedora rpm in mock:

  1. Create temporary folder anywhere, for example: mkdir temp
  2. Download master.zip and external.tar.xz into it.
  3. Download icq.tar.gz and extract contents into the folder.
  4. create src.rpm, for example: rpmbuild -bs --define '_sourcedir temp' --define '_specdir temp' --define '_srcrpmdir temp' temp/icq.spec
  5. update /etc/mock/fedora-27-x86_64.cfg, add 
    [rpmfusion-free-updates]
name=rpmfusion-free-updates
