Description Sergio Pascual 2011-07-15 15:28:44 UTC
mock-1.1.11 doesn't build packages for el6 out of the box, although CentOS 6 has been released and the its repositories are available

Sergio

What problem are you having with the released CentOS 6 archive?  The assertion of an inability to build, without a reproducer makes it hard to analyze this bug

Building a package for el6:

$ mock -r -r epel-6-x86_64 somepackage.src.rpm
(snip)
ERROR: Command failed: 
 # ['/usr/bin/yum', '--installroot', '/var/lib/mock/epel-6-x86_64/root/', 'groupinstall', 'buildsys-build', '--setopt=tsflags=nocontexts']
Ignored option -c (probably due to merging -yc != -y -c)
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: beta. Please verify its path and try again

The configuration file for epel-6 still has some mentions to a "beta" repository.
If you remove them, the build still fails with:

ERROR: Command failed: 
 # ['/usr/bin/yum', '--installroot', '/var/lib/mock/epel-6-x86_64/root/', 'groupinstall', 'buildsys-build', '--setopt=tsflags=nocontexts']
Ignored option -c (probably due to merging -yc != -y -c)
Error: Package: epel-release-6-5.noarch (epel)
           Requires: /bin/sh
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
Error: Package: epel-release-6-5.noarch (epel)
           Requires: redhat-release >= 6
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
