Bug 1051474

Moved from bug #1050218.

Using mock-1.1.32-1 on rhel7, yum-utils-1.1.31-19, I get a repeat of bug #98204. 

result/root.log:

Changing the permissions doesn't help; they go back to 600 when mock does chroot init. 

Workaround: initialise the chroot, change the rpm db permissions manually to 660 and then run mock with --no-clean --disable-plugin=package_state.
