default Release Notes - Mock v3.1

Released on 2022-07-22.

Mock v3.1 changes:

  • There's a fix for a new RPM behavior on F37+ where rpmbuild automatically cleans the %buildroot directory upon a successful build. This behavior is not desired when Mock user wants to keep the buildroot contents for further debugging (config_opts["cleanup_on_success"] = False is configured, or --no-cleanup-after option is used). Original bug report.

  • Mock v3.1+ started using /bin/tar instead of /bin/gtar for normal work with archives. This default can be changed by a new option config_opts["tar_binary"]. This should help with distributing Mock to GNU/Linux distributions where /bin/gtar symbolic link doesn't exist.

  • Mock v3.1+ still expects that that the default system Tar represents a GNU tar implementation (unless config_opts["tar"] = 'bsdtar'). Mock v3.1 version though got several fixes that make the work with the BSD tar implementation more convenient.
