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 because 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 chroot. This can be specified multiple times. Lets
              you point to multiple paths beyond the default to pull build deps from.

       -c, --continue
              if a package 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.

       -m OPTION, --mock-option=OPTION
              pass the OPTION to mock. Can be used several times. For example:

              -m --define="packager Monkey"

       -r CONFIG, --root=CONFIG
              chroot config name to use in the mock build.

       --recurse
              build  all  packages, record the failures and try to rebuild them again and again until everything
              gets built (or until the set of packages failing to build are the same over) sets --continue
