Description Michal Toman 2011-06-01 09:05:45 UTC

Please consider accepting a new package mock into RHEL 6.2. Mock is a tool used to create a chroot and build packages within.

It is required by Retrace server (New package: retrace-server - bug 709635).

It is a part of Fedora:

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2011-06-01 19:55:00 UTC

How does this work for the retrace server with respect to RHN/the CDN?

The reason we haven't shipped mock in the past is that it doesn't integrate well with RHN at all.

It it the way mock is packaged, or is it the actual functionality provided by mock that doesn't integrate with RHN? If the first, I can fix that.

Comment 5 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 08:12:33 UTC

This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 6 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 23:16:13 UTC

This request was erroneously removed from consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4, which is currently under development.  This request will be evaluated for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4.

Comment 7 RHEL Program Management 2013-10-14 01:04:58 UTC

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unable to address this
request at this time.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate, in the next release of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 10 Brian Gollaher 2014-03-10 19:31:14 UTC

Thank you for submitting this request for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux. We've carefully evaluated the request, but are unable to include it in a future release. To request that Red Hat re-consider this request, please re-open the bugzilla via appropriate support channels and provide additional business and/or technical details about its importance to you.

Comment 23 Steve Almy 2016-09-09 20:09:20 UTC

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 has reached the end of Production 1 Phase of its Life Cycle (see https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata/ for details). Accordingly, there are no plans to incorporate this feature in a future Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 release.

To request the feature be included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, please re-open the request for Red Hat Enterprise 7 and provide additional business and/or technical information about the importance of this feature to you.
