Today I tried to do some rawhide builds in my usual mock setup (running
on updated x86_64 F11), but somehow I can't even init a chroot due to:
Executing command: ['/usr/sbin/groupadd', '-g', '498',
'mockbuild']
Child returncode was: 4
GID 498 is already occupied by exim, which gets pulled in because cronie
depends on /usr/bin/sendmail and exim has the shortest name. (cronie is
needed because of crontabs, which is a dependency of rpm.) Exim has no
requirement that it get group 498; it only calls useradd so this must
just be bad luck.
Obviously this didn't always happen; I have no idea what has changed to
cause this situation. Anyone have any ideas for getting mock going
again?
