Description Richard Jasmin 2015-11-07 18:01:58 UTC
Description of problem:
The wrong permissions are requested when using mock, or setting it up for a koji build.Alas, this process requires a superuser, however, ANY superuser permission can be requested.

Yet, ROOT password is explicity requested.This is not the only app requesting this.This could have security potential.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
22

How reproducible:
every instatiation or invocation of the application

Steps to Reproduce:
1.try and mock something

Actual results:
I WANT ROOT DAMMNIT!

Expected results:
I am already a superuser, ask for my permission.

I believe there is something incorrectly configure on your side.
Mock does not require to be root. You just need to be member of mock group.
