ARM builds
by Mátyás Selmeci 06 Jan '25

06 Jan '25

Hi, Can you tell me what kind of systems you use for building for the armhfp architecture, and where to buy them? My group would like to start supporting that architecture but I can't find anything concrete. Or is emulation the way to go here? Thanks, -Mat

Strange permissions on Koji repos
by Anthony Joseph Messina 22 Oct '17

22 Oct '17

I'm running a private Koji instance (have been for a while) and have started to see that newRepo/createRepo tasks are writing out repos with the wrong permissions on files or directories, which leads to failures: OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/mnt/koji/repos/f26-build/9294' drwx------. 4 apache apache 4096 Aug 24 17:45 9291 drwx------. 4 apache apache 4096 Aug 24 17:45 9292 drwxr-xr-x. 4 apache apache 4096 Aug 24 17:48 9293 drwx------. 4 apache apache 4096 Aug 24 17:48 9294 My Koji hub and builders are fully updated F26 x86_64 machines. Has anyone seen this? Andy pointers on where to start debugging this issue? Thanks in advance. -A -- Anthony - https://messinet.com/ - https://messinet.com/~amessina/gallery F9B6 560E 68EA 037D 8C3D D1C9 FF31 3BDB D9D8 99B6

Future plans for Mock
by Miroslav Suchý 22 Aug '17

22 Aug '17

I was thinking about future of Mock and I would like to share my thought with you: * This year will be EOLed RHEL5. Despite that I would like to keep RHEL5 configs for maybe an additional year. I.e. support RHEL5 as build target. * On the other hand - I'm thinking about ending support for RHEL6 as host platform. I.e. no longer build new mock version for RHEL6. But still have RHEL6 config, so users can build their SRPM for RHEL6. This will allow me to get rid of some compatibility workarounds and use --new-chroot everywhere (as RHEL6 does not have systemd-nspawn). * Make --new-chroot default. Did you tested it? Do you have cases when it does not work? Please report it. I plan to keep --old-chroot option for some time (definitely for this year). * Check gpg signatures in rawhide. See https://pagure.io/releng/issue/6600 I welcome any comments. Mirek

New release: mock 1.4.4
by Miroslav Suchý 22 Aug '17

22 Aug '17

I just submitted new version to Bodhi. From the release notes: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/mock/wiki/Release-Notes-1.4.4 * Fedora 27 configs have been added. * /etc/dnf/dnf.conf is used instead of /etc/dnf.conf * /etc/dnf/dnf.conf is populated even when yum is used * Rename group inside of chroot from mockbuild to mock - this will allow you to install mock inside of mock' chroot.

by Miroslav Suchý 21 Aug '17

21 Aug '17

Hi, I just released new version of Mock. I submitted it to updates-testing F26, F25 and EPEL-7 so please test it before it hit stable. From the release notes: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/mock/wiki/Release-Notes-1.4.3 This is bug fix release, we fixed following issues: --nocheck macro was not properly escaped [RHBZ#1473359]. Use python3 and dnf module on Fedoras to guess architecture in %post scriptlet [RHBZ#1462310]. enhanced detection of RHEL [RHBZ#1470189]. scm: define _sourcedir to checkout directory [PR#98]. Mageia Cauldron releasever is now 7 [PR#95] Create /dev nodes even when using nspawn [RHBZ#1467299]. selinux: do not try to import yum when PM is dnf [RHBZ#1474513]. When you have hundreds of volumes in LVM you can tell mock to wait longer using config_opts['plugin_conf']['lvm_root_opts']['sleep_time'] = 1.

Should mock warn when it is using DNF instead of Yum?
by Miroslav Suchý 09 Aug '17

09 Aug '17

Hi, right now Mock produces warning when you are using Yum for chroots which are supposed to use DNF. Now we have the other situation. There are users which has DNF and does not have Yum any more. Should we warn them that they are using DNF instead of YUM? For more background see: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/mock/issues/101#issuecomment-321… Mirek
