Hi,
I am trying to create a mock configuration file that points to my local dnf repo. I have the following in the mock config template:
[local-repo] name=my-Local baseurl=http://yumrepo.example.com/yum-repository/local/centos/8/x86_64/ failovermethod=priority skip_if_unavailable=False
When I try to run mock I get the following error:
(vgeppetto3 pts18) $ mock -v -r epel-8-x86_64 /home/mock/rpmbuild/SRPMS/centos-release-8.2-2.2004.0.1.el8.1.src.rpm
File "<string>", line 238
baseurl=http://yumrepo.example.com/yum-repository/local/centos/8/x86_64/
^SyntaxError: invalid syntax
ERROR: Error in configuration (vgeppetto3 pts18) $
I copied the url out of a yum repo file I am using that works with dnf on a centos 8 machine.
Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?
I assume you added the yum repo after a line that looks like this:
That was what I was missing. Fixing that and changing the order of the template lines in epel-8-x86_64.cfg resolved the issue. Thanks for that!!
config_opts['dnf.conf'] += """
And before a line that looks like this:
Also, I am trying to add a dist tag to rpms that I build in mock. In the epel-7 configs I do something like the following: config_opts['macros']['%dist'] = '.el7.tnt' to get a dist tag on the rpms. In epel/centos 8 this does not work.
If I run "mock --debug-config epel-8-x86_64" I see '%dist': '.el8.tnt'} in the output but the rpm name does not have the el8.tnt tag in the name.
Below is what I actually get: (vgeppetto3 pts19) $ ll /var/lib/mock/epel-8-x86_64/result/centos-release-8.2-2.2004.0.1.el8.1.x86_64.rpm -rw-r--r--. 1 mock mock 20404 Aug 24 13:32 /var/lib/mock/epel-8-x86_64/result/centos-release-8.2-2.2004.0.1.el8.1.x86_64.rpm (vgeppetto3 pts19)
I have the following in the spec file: Release: %{centos_rel}.0.1%{?dist}.1
Does anyone know how to apply a dist tag in the epel-8 mock configs?
Is mock documented anywhere besides the src code? I cannot find any documentation that explains what actually needs to be in a mock configuration file or in this case how to specify my own dist tag.
