The problem occurs in mock-0.7.1 on Fedora 7, in the do() method. It seems to me that the return status of the child process created by popen2.Popen4() is never assigned to retval before exiting. So default value zero is always returned to the parent process, and the consequence is that build errors are ignored by mock. Here is a patch that makes it work for me: --- /usr/bin/mock 2007-06-14 19:42:22.000000000 +0200 +++ /tmp/mock 2007-06-17 23:30:46.000000000 +0200 @@ -606,6 +606,9 @@ for line in child.fromchild: w.write(line) w.close() + + retval = child.wait() + os._exit( (retval & 0xFF00) >> 8 )
