It seems however that without this patch, or something similar, can lead to the situation reported in the last comments. </div> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> How do I clobber all of this to that the database gets written afresh? Apparently, "mock -r fedora-10-x86_64 --clean" isn't adequate. Perhaps "mock --nuke" would be useful here following an version update to zap stale state? Or should I just uninstall and reinstall mock?
