SMOCK - Simpler Mock ==================== by Dan Berrange and Richard W.M. Jones. License: GPLv2+ Smock is a thin wrapper around mock to let you build up a whole set of dependant RPMs against an external distro. - Create directory $HOME/public_html/smock - Copy smock.httpd.conf to /etc/httpd/conf.d/smock.conf, changing the /home/[USERNAME]/ to your user - Start or restart httpd - Insert smock.mock.extra to all your repos in /etc/mock/ changing the USERNAME, arch and distro name to match - Disable SELinux (/usr/sbin/setenforce Permissive) and you may need to do 'chmod 0755 ~' to allow the web server to access your home directory. Now you can run ./smock.pl --arch=i386 --arch=x86_64 --distro=fedora-9 list of srpms And it'll build the all the SRPMs listed on the command line, using previously built SRPMs as dependencies for later ones. You don't need to list them in the proper order - the build order is worked out using the dependencies. The resulting src RPMs, binary RPMs and build logs wil be put into $HOME/public_html/smock, and a Yum repo created. Further RPMs you build using smock will resolve the BuildRequires against this local repo.
