Testing with Mock & Koji

Well folks, I am happy to say that both my "Mock and Koji" for sshguard has gone well! A brief run down, initially I had to install the mock software using "yum", then I had to add mock to the the mock group >>>using#: usermod  -G mock <username>, and then I started building with mock using#: mock -r fedora-12-x86_64 --rebuild <src. rpm> * Note: "fedora-12 linux based OS, x86_64 is the architecture employed on my system". The resultant from the above process generated a positive output.


For Koji the process was a bit similar, however, getting Koji setup involved a process of obtaining and setting up security certs for authentication (3 in total); as it is a core dependent to testing the use of Koji, on your system. Just to backtrack for a moment, the certs setup was done via my FAS2 account, and from that point, I ran the command syntax: #koji build  dist-f12  --scratch <src.rpm>. The following screenshots reflects successful testing of both tools against my sshguard package.
