mock sets locale to en_US.UTF-8 on every build in Koji. Look at any
build.log. Example:

Mock Version: 1.3.4
ENTER ['do'](['bash', '--login', '-c', '/usr/bin/rpmbuild -bs --target x86_64 --nodeps /builddir/build/SPECS/libspf2.spec'], chrootPath='/var/lib/mock/f29-build-12927811-944129/root'env={'TERM': 'vt100', 'SHELL': '/bin/bash', 'HOME': '/builddir', 'HOSTNAME': 'mock', 'PATH': '/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin', 'PROMPT_COMMAND': 'printf "\\033]0;<mock-chroot>\\007"', 'PS1': '<mock-chroot> \\s-\\v\\$ ', 'LANG': 'en_US.UTF-8'}shell=Falselogger=<mockbuild.trace_decorator.getLog object at 0x7f6cc8fb3fd0>timeout=172800uid=1000gid=425user='mockbuild'nspawn_args=[]printOutput=False)

Either you need to change mock to set C.UTF-8, or change your proposal to
install glibc-langpack-en instead of glibc-minimal-langpack. Otherwise various
programs will fail to set the locale at build time. E.g. perl is quite
noisy about that.
