Hello maintainers!
Let me announce a new release of Mock Core Configs v39.3, aka
the configuration files for Mock, the chroot build environment manager
for building RPMs.
The notable change in this release is that we are switching the default
package_manager from DNF4 to DNF5, according to the F40 change:

We plan to push this update into Fedora Copr to get some early testing
next week. Then, depending on the releng team, we might push this into
Koji soon. The Bodhi updates links are here:

Note that we **will not** push these updates into Fedora stable earlier
than on Monday 2023-12-18 (but very likely we'll wait till the next
year, depending on the feedback).
Happy (faster) building!
