If we wanted to pursue that, I'd suggest the following: remount $RPM_BUILD_ROOT read-only for the %check phase (or maybe overmount it with a writable overlayfs that is thrown away after %check finishes, and warn if any modifications were made.) %check is executed after %install, so everything should be in place before %check, and %check may be skipped, so no modifications to installed files should be done in %check. Considering possible implemention details, machinectl has 'bind' and 'bind --read-only' that might be useful here. But mock uses systemd-nspawn in a way that does register the container with machined. So maybe it'd be more reasonable to just execute a mount command directly from mock. This is independent of the test system and does not require splitting of the test sources.
