I'm not sure. It just seems to compile a random tarball, you
either have to have:
- a (root) shell open both inside and outside of the chroot
or
- continually jumping out of the chroot to do mock rpm -Uvh, etc.
I don't have any suggestions at the moment - having mock dig
through autoconf scripts for dependencies to install doesn't
seem right.
