Dennis, are you still not seeing the manual install in the root log? I'm not really sure why it's not there since it looks like the install command goes through the same code path as a regular buildroot setup. Still looking though...
I just tried again (mock-1.1.4-1.fc13 and got the same result. No output saved to root.log from the install command.
updated the install and update commands to enable logging. Should be available in mock-1.1.8
