In a local mock build, yes. The latest `mock-core-configs` update https://rpm-software-management.github.io/mock/Release-Notes-Configs-41.1 did the change. > - If I build in mock against chroots for linked mock configs I have > separate buildroots and builds. > > I don't think we want the latter, but I may be wrong. We do not enable the symlinked chroots in Copr, actually. So this should be fine?

It should document EPEL 10, too. Requested here: https://pagure.io/epel/issue/290 Pavel > Cheers > Michael > >
