Hello maintainers! Let me announce a new release of Mock v5.0 (the chroot build environment manager for building RPMs). This release release brings lots of changes, though the one that I'd like to underline is that we turned --use-bootstrap-image ON by default. This effectively means that Mock uses Podman to pull the bootstrap image from image registries (instead of installing it from scratch with `dnf --installroot`). Thus Podman is now in `Recommends:`, not just `Suggests:`. Should you have any issues, you can temporarily revert this change with `--no-bootstrap-image` (--scrub=all first!). Alternatively set `config_opts["use_bootstrap_image"] = False` in configuration. Mock 5.0 also stops using '/sbin/useradd' inside the chroot, but uses '/sbin/useradd --prefix <chroot>' _on host_ to modify the in-chroot /etc/passwd. This change passed all our testing, but there's a potential for bugs. The mock-core-configs-v39 brings also the Fedora 39 configuration as it is now branched from Rawhide (Rawhide is 40 now in Mock). Several folks already reported that Fedora Copr builds are broken for fedora-rawhide-*, sorry for inconveniences. This is being resolved right now, we are pushing mock-5.0 into the Fedora Copr production.
