Hello all, Over the last several months, I've been working in Mageia on enabling the use of DNF for managing software in the distribution[0]. One of the consequences of this is that we're now able to have packages built using Mock. Indeed, it was intended as part of the development to enable building with Mock, and in the past, I talked to Miroslav Suchý about also getting Mageia supported as a target in Copr. Of course, he mentioned a prerequisite for this is having Mock support.
Today, I'm pleased to provide a patch to do just that. The attached patch adds the initial build target configs for Mageia Cauldron on 32-bit and 64-bit x86. I say initial because we do intend to have metalinks going very soon, and I would like to change the configuration files to use metalinks instead of a direct URL. However, I do not know how we need to set up metalinks for DNF to use them. In addition, we would also like to support the automatic redirection to a mirror when using http URLs (as download.fp.o does) for our legacy package manager, urpmi (which will remain the primary for Mageia 6 for various reasons). If there's anyone who could help us out on this, it would be greatly appreciated. In any case, the configs are available as the attached patch, pointing to a specific mirror (mirrors.kernel.org) for now.
