- Add mock-specific build artifacts (chroot/, mock-*, mockroot/) - Include package build files (*.deb, *.changes, *.buildinfo) - Add development tools (.coverage, .pytest_cache, .tox) - Include system files (.DS_Store, Thumbs.db, ._*) - Add temporary and backup files (*.tmp, *.bak, *.backup) - Include local configuration overrides (config.local.yaml, .env.local) - Add test artifacts and documentation builds - Comprehensive coverage for Python build system project This ensures build artifacts, chroot environments, and development tools are properly ignored in version control.

title: Release Notes - Mock v4.1
|
|
---
|

|

Released on 2023-06-05.
|
|
|
|
## Mock v4.1 new features:
|
|
|
|
- The `/bin/dnf` path can be either provided by [DNF5][] on newer systems
|
|
([Fedora 39+][default package manager in F39]), or by [DNF4][] on older
|
|
systems. The detection of `/bin/dnf` though wasn't ideal. Newly, if [DNF4][]
|
|
is requested, Mock searches for the `/bin/dnf-3` script instead. Also, when
|
|
installing [DNF4][] into a bootstrap chroot, `python3-dnf` is installed
|
|
instead of just `dnf` which might install [DNF5][].
|
|
|
|
- We newly allow installing the bootstrap chroot using `/bin/dnf5` as fallback,
|
|
if the requested package manager is not found on host (e.g. if
|
|
`package_manager=dnf` is set for particular chroot, but only [DNF5][] is
|
|
available on host, i.e. the future systems). Previous version of Mock would
|
|
just fail verbosely.
|
|
|
|
- The `mock.rpm` runtime dependencies were changed and relaxed. We newly don't
|
|
strictly require any of the package managers. Having `dnf5` or `python3-dnf`
|
|
installed on host is just a `Suggested` thing, and it is newly up to the user
|
|
to install one of them (on Fedora 39+, [DNF5][] will be more commonly the
|
|
choice). Strictly speaking, with the `--use-bootstrap-image` feature, no
|
|
package manager on host is needed at all.
|
|
|
|
- We use the same package manager search logic for bootstrap, non-bootstrap or
|
|
bootstrap image use-cases.
|
|
|
|
## Mock v4.1 bugfixes:
|
|
|
|
- The Mock v4.0 broken chroot configurations with custom SSL certificates and
|
|
bootstrap (the certificates were not copied into the bootstrap chroot
|
|
correctly). This problem [has been fixed][issue#1094].
|
|
|
|
- The `bind_mount` plug-in newly pre-creates the destination directory in-chroot
|
|
for bind-mounted files. See [PR#1093][] for more info.
|
|
|
|
- The --dnf-cmd option was fixed for the revamped `package_manager` detection
|
|
logic. See [PR#1087][] for more info.
