Description Pat Riehecky 2019-03-08 17:36:48 UTC
Description of problem:
When using mock on an EL7 host and trying to build a Fedora 28+ chroot, the config needs to add config_opts['use_bootstrap_container'] = True


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mock-1.4.14-2.el7.noarch

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install mock on an EL7 system
2.mock -r rhelbeta-8-x86_64 --init


Actual results:
fails due to new RPM features

Expected results:
Enable the bootstrap container by default for those profiles in EPEL7

Comment 1 Miroslav Suchý 2019-03-11 13:21:15 UTC
Yes, that is true. But the solution is not easy - it will be either pain to maintain or very hard to code. The great approach - to use host configs is discussed here: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/mock/issues/199

Comment 2 Pat Riehecky 2019-03-12 14:23:36 UTC
I was thinking a fairly simple %if within the specfile.... something like

%if 0%{?rhel} < 8
echo "config_opts['use_bootstrap_container'] = True" >> fedora_whatever_.cfg
%endif

That should keep the maintenance fairly low and provide the expected behavior.

Comment 3 Nico Kadel-Garcia 2019-07-07 18:14:23 UTC
I agree that a small loop in the .spec file is suitable. But since the problem is not merely fedora, but will also occur with rhel-8 and centos-8, it's safer to test for the "package_manager" line being "dnf" and edit the file to reset use_bootstrap_container accordingly.

Piping options into the end of the .cfg file is confusing, because this starts putting options after the "yum" stanza. Definitely put it with the

Comment 4 Nico Kadel-Garcia 2019-07-07 18:19:35 UTC
Note that the spec file in question is the mock-core-config.spec file. And I meant to say:

Definitely put it in all the /etc/mock/*.cfg file with the "package_manager" set to "dnf". This will also et the rhel-8 and other dnf based configs as they are published.
