It's a tool used in Debian to verify that packages can be built
successfully in a minimal environment that only contains the build
dependencies that have been explicitly declared and where access to
the network and the filesystem outside of the working directory is
forbidden.

I think the equivalent in the Fedora world is mock, but I haven't
used the latter in person so I might be off-base :)
