- 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 2.2
|

Released on 2020-04-02.
|
|
|
|
## Mock 2.2 new features:
|
|
|
|
* `/etc/mock/site-defaults.cfg` was moved from /etc to %doc, and the
|
|
config file is now much smaller (and moved to `mock-core-configs`).
|
|
Even before the file was meant to be documentation-only (everything
|
|
commented-out), but since it was also configuration file - with
|
|
frequent updates in RPM - it was very easy to stop following what's new
|
|
there ([#555](../pulls/555)).
|
|
|
|
* Mock no more strictly depends on `mock-core-configs` package, but depends on
|
|
`mock-configs` instead. Even though `mock-core-configs` package still
|
|
provides `mock-configs`, but other packages can as well, so users now can
|
|
provide alternatives to `mock-core-configs` ([#544](../pulls/544)).
|
|
|
|
* New `config_opts['isolation']` option invented (alternative to
|
|
`--isolation`) to replace boolean `config_opts['use_nspawn']`. The
|
|
possible values are `nspawn`, `simple` and `auto` (default). When
|
|
`auto` is specified mock tries to use `nspawn` and if it is not
|
|
possible, it falls-back to `simple` chroot. This is useful to make
|
|
mock work by default in environments like Fedora Toolbox, Podman and
|
|
Docker. The old `use_nspawn` option still works, but `isolation` has
|
|
preference ([#337](../pulls/337) and [#550](../pulls/550)).
|
|
|
|
* The `LANG` is set to `C.UTF-8` by default (and always) for chrooted
|
|
processes. Previously mock inherited this value from host environment,
|
|
and defaulted to `C.UTF-8` otherwise. This was done to make mock more
|
|
deterministic, users can change the default by
|
|
`config_opts['environment']['LANG']` ([#451](../issues/451)).
|
|
|
|
## Mock 2.2 bugfixes:
|
|
|
|
* Fix for doubled log entries in some situations ([#539](../pulls/539),
|
|
[RHBZ#1805631](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1805631)).
|
|
|
|
* Fix to make mock work in *Fedora Toolbox* even with
|
|
`--bootstrap-chroot` ([#550](../pulls/550)).
|
|
|
|
* Fix for mock in `--privileged` docker container where `os.getlogin()`
|
|
did not work ([#551](../pulls/551)).
|
|
|
|
* When `--bootstrap-chroot` is enabled, things like `rpm -qa --root ...` are
|
|
executed in bootstrap chroot, instead of on host. This is to assure that the
|
|
RPM used is compatible with target chroot RPMDB ([#525](../issues/525)).
|
|
|
|
* The `mock --chroot -- CMD ARG1 ARG2` command was fixed so it works correctly
|
|
for both `--isolation=simple|nspawn` and `use_bootstrap=True|False`, the
|
|
caveats in `--shell` and `--chroot` are now better documented in manual
|
|
page ([#550](../pulls/550)).
|
|
|
|
* Mock `--chain` with `--isolation=simple` was fixed to work with
|
|
external URLs ([#542](../pulls/542)).
|
|
|
|
* Killing of forgotten chrooted processes was made more robust. We now
|
|
kill also "daemons" started on background during chroot initialization
|
|
-- when packages are installed to mock chroot and some package
|
|
scriptlet mistakenly spawns background process ([#183](../issues/183)).
|
|
|
|
* The `--use-bootstrap-image` was fixed to work on EL7 properly
|
|
([#536](../pulls/536)).
|
|
|
|
* Stuff below `<bootstrap_root>/tmp` is now passed down to mock chroot even
|
|
with `--isolation=nspawn` (default). Previously - everything mock prepared
|
|
below that directory was automatically overmounted by `systemd-nspawn`.
|
|
So newly, stuff like `--install /tmp/some.rpm` or repositories like
|
|
`file:///tmp/test-repo` will be correctly used through `--bootstrap-chroot`.
|
|
This fix requires new-enough `systemd-nspawn` which supports
|
|
`$SYSTEMD_NSPAWN_TMPFS_TMP` environment variable ([#502](../issues/502)).
|
|
|
|
* Mock configuration; the host-local
|
|
`baseurl=file:///some/path/$basearch` repositories with dnf variables
|
|
inside were fixed for `--bootstrap-chroot`
|
|
([RHBZ#1815703](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1815703)).
|
|
|
|
* Mock configuration; the host-local `metalink=file:///some/host/file`
|
|
(and mirrorlist) repositories were are fixed for bootstrap
|
|
([RHBZ#1816696](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1816696)).
|
|
|
|
* With bootstrap, we use configured yum commands instead of hard-wired
|
|
`/usr/bin/yum` ([#518](../pulls/518)).
|
|
|
|
* The `package_state` plugin was fixed to cleanup RPMDB before executing
|
|
`rpm -qa`. This broke builds on targets with incompatible RPMDB
|
|
backends before (e.g. OpenMandriva).
|
|
|
|
## Mock-core-configs 32.6
|
|
|
|
* The `site-defaults.cfg` config file was moved from mock to
|
|
`mock-core-configs`.
|
|
|
|
* The `config_opts['isolation']` is now used instead of
|
|
`config_opts['use_nspawn']`, when necessary.
|
|
|
|
* We declare the minimal version of `mock` by `Requires:` now. At this
|
|
point it is version **2.2+**.
|
|
|
|
* The default bootstrap image was specified for Amazon Linux conifgs.
