Description of problem: mock can use bind mounts only if the target directory exists, but in my specific case they don't exist and I need a way to create them. Maybe something like config_opts['bind_mount_opts']['create_dirs'] could be added. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mock-1.1.9-1.fc14.noarch How reproducible: Every time Additional info: I'm trying to use my yum cache with mock. The cache is split into two parts: metadata and packages. For example /var/cache/yum/i386/14/fedora/packages is a symlink to /mnt/misc/yum-packages/fedora. I am also using the DVD as a media repo. Therefore my /etc/mock/fedora-14-i386.cfg contains the following lines: config_opts['plugin_conf']['bind_mount_opts']['dirs'].append(('/mnt/extra/Software/Linux/Fedora/yum-cache/i386/14', '/var/cache/yum/i386/14')) config_opts['plugin_conf']['bind_mount_opts']['dirs'].append(('/mnt/extra/Software/Linux/Fedora/yum-packages/14', '/mnt/misc/yum-packages')) config_opts['plugin_conf']['bind_mount_opts']['dirs'].append(('/mnt/misc/Fedora-14-i386-DVD', '/mnt/misc/Fedora-14-i386-DVD/'))
Created attachment 538213 [details] create source directories this is what I have done for myself. Shouldn't be too tough to optionally create the directories using the self.bind_opts, if my assumptions are correct.
Added a config and the code to create non-existent source dirs. Will be in next release.
