So... run it as whom?

[philipp at builder SRPMS]$ mock -r fedora-10-x86_64 --init --rebuild perl-Net-Patricia-1.15_01-1.fc9.src.rpm 

ERROR: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted

ERROR: The most common cause for this error is trying to run /usr/sbin/mock as an unprivileged user.
ERROR: Check your path to make sure that /usr/bin/ is listed before /usr/sbin, or manually run /usr/bin/mock to see if that fixes this problem.
