Patches for this are for lorax and anaconda here: https://github.com/rhinstaller/lorax/pull/117 https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/610 It would be nice to have this in the final version of Fedora 24.
Proposed as a Freeze Exception for 24-final by Fedora user bcl using the blocker tracking app because: It would be nice to be able to build ostree PXE images from mock.
Discussed during the 2016-05-30 blocker review meeting: [1] The decision was made to accept this bug as an AcceptedFreezeException. However, more info is needed regarding the benefit of a fix and on how invasive a fix for this would be. Quote from the meeting: "we're willing to accept this as a convenience for the compose process and due to the misunderstanding between anaconda team and blocker review group about how the FE process works, but will ask bcl not to land it unless he's very confident in it, and work with anaconda team to improve this process in future" [1] https://meetbot-raw.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2016-05-30/f24-blocker-review.2016-05-30-16.01.txt
I was hoping to have these in earlier, on further review I'm not comfortable with this level of change after freeze so I'm going to drop them for f24. They *are* already present for f25 use FWIW.
