I've hit a snag with https://github.com/rpm-software-management/mock/commit/58684e072d7e05563c43…
I've got a somewhat novel koji setup.
It is a single host that does cross compiles for all my arches: i686, x86_64, aarch64, and ppc64le.
I don't have dedicated hardware for aarch64 or ppc64le, so I'm using `forcearch` and the qemu-static packages to build for these platforms. I have terribly few internal users of these platforms and most of what I build internally is noarch so the performance is sufficient given the cost of physical nodes.
But every so often, I need to build a native binary for these platforms.
Obviously this is an infrequent task as I just ran into behavior from a 2 year old release of mock.
But koji is using a repo that is filtered for my target arch, so my native host x86_64 can't bootstrap. The dnf config in the installroot is pointing to an ppc64le or aarch64 only repository for the target packages and thus can't satisfy any binary dependencies.
The way I read the notes in mock.py suggest that `bootstrap_forcearch` should never be True, so I'm at a loss for how to work around this.
I've looked over:
