NAME¶
mockchain - chain package builder.
SYNOPSIS¶
mockchain -r chroot_config [options] [package...]
DESCRIPTION¶
mockchain builds a series of srpms in mock one at a time. After each
successful build of a package it adds the resulting packages to a local repo
which are available to the next package to satisfy buildreqs.
USAGE NOTES¶
This does not try to sort the packages by build order b/c that is too much
effort and not obviously doable with the buildreq information we have.
The build process when you use -l is idempotent so a package which has already
been successfully built will not be built again.
If you want to force the rebuild of a package which has been built successfully
simply remove the 'success' file from the directory for the package in the
localrepo path.
OPTIONS¶
- -a REPOS, --addrepo=REPOS
- add this repo baseurl to the yumconfig for the buildroot. This can be
specified multiple times. Let's you point to multiple paths beyond the
default to pull build deps from.
- -c, --continue
- if a pkg fails to build, continue to the next one, default is to stop
- -l LOCALREPO, --localrepo=PATH
- set the path to put the results/repo in. This path needs to be somewhere
accessible to users other than you for reading as the mock process doesn't
run as you. Will make a tempdir if not set.
- --log=LOGFILE
- log to the file named by this option, defaults to not logging
- -r CHROOT, --root=CHROOT
- chroot config name to use in the mock build
- --recurse
- build all pkgs, record the failures and try to rebuild them again and
again until everything gets built (or until the set of pkgs failing to
build are the same over) sets --continue
