+---
+
+Released on 2023-09-15.
+
+
+## New 5.1 features
+
+- We [implemented a convenience fallback][PR#1200] from **bootstrap-from-image**
+  to the slower **bootstrap-installed-DNF-from-host** for the cases when Podman
+  can not be used properly (when container image can not be pulled, image can
+  not be mounted, image architecture mismatch, Podman is not available or not
+  working - e.g. if run in non-privileged Docker, etc).
+
+  There's also a new ["podman pull" backoff logic][commit#395fc07f796] that
+  makes Mock to retry Podman pulling for 120s (default).  Feel free to adjust this
+  timeout by `config_opts["bootstrap_image_keep_getting"]` option.
+- Mock [newly logs out][PR#1210] the package management toolset versions (e.g.
+  version of DNF, RPM, etc.) that is used for the buildroot installation.  This
+  is a feature helping users to diagnose problems with buildroot installation
+  (minimal buildroot, `BuildRequires`, dynamic build requires, etc.).  It might
+  seem like a trivial addition, but sometimes it isn't quite obvious where the
+  tooling comes from (is that from host? from bootstrap? was it downloaded
+  "pre-installed" with bootstrap image?).
+- There's a [new "INFO" message][commit#8c7aad5680e8f86] raised when running
+  Podman in Docker, potentially without `docker run --privileged`.  This should
+  decrease the confusion if Mock subsequently falls-back to non-default
+  `use_bootstrap_image=False`.  See [issue#1184][] for more info.
+- New exception `BootstrapError` was invented with (if not caught) returns with
+  exit status 90.  This exception covers problems with the bootstrap chroot
+  preparation.
+- The `package_state.py` plugin has been updated to sort the displayed list of
+  installed and available packages alphabetically (previously the list of packages
+  was printed in random order).
+- Per [PR#1220][] discussion, Mock package newly `Recommends` having DNF5, DNF and
+  YUM package managers installed on host.  These packages are potentially useful,
+  at least when the (default) bootstrap preparation mechanism (bootstrap image)
+  fails and the bootstrap needs to be installed with host's package management.
+  Previously Mock just "suggested" having them installed, which though used to
+  have almost zero practical effect (as Suggests are not installed by default).
+- Mock now, at least on the best effort basis (if used with
+  `package_manager=dnf`), ["fails" with exit status 30][issue#42] if it isn't able
+  to process the `--postinstall` request (i.e. installing the built packages into
+  the target chroot).  Previous Mock versions used to ignore (with warning) the
+  failed package installation attempts.
+- The SCM logic [got a new option][PR#1197]
+  `config_opts['scm_opts']['int_src_dir']` that instructs Mock to search for
+  sources in a specified sub-directory.
+
+
+### Bugfixes
+
+- Some container images Mock is using for initializing bootstrap chroot (e.g.
+  `centos:7`), do not provide all the needed architectures.  Podman [though
+  silently pulls arch-incompatible
+  image](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/19717), which caused
+  [hard-to-debug build failures](https://github.com/fedora-copr/copr/issues/2875).
+  Mock 5.1 therefore [implements a new assertion][PR#1199] failing the build
+  early, before mistakenly trying to run emulated "--forcearch" chroot leading to
+  failure.  The assertion is exposed as a Python library call
+  `mockbuild.podman:podman_check_native_image_architecture()`.
+- When bootstrap chroot is initialized from downloaded container image, it
+  typically contains `/etc/rpm/macros.image-language-conf` file with locale
+  filtering of some kind (per defaults from the fedora-kickstarts project).
+  This bootstrap configuration though affects the buildroot installation
+  (filtering l11n files from buildroot) and this is sometimes unexpected.
+  Mock now [automatically removes the macro file][PR#1189], see
+  [issue#1181][] for more info.
+- Manual page has been fixed to better describe the `--config-opts=option=value`
+  semantics.
+- Mock uses `tmpfs` mountpoints in some cases just to hide (on host) some rather
+  complicated mount structures (done in chroot/separate mount namespace).  These
+  "barrier" mount points though used to have the default `mode=0777` potentially
+  allowing anyone to accidentally write there and cause e.g. unmount failures.
+  New Mock [uses `mode=0755`][PR#1213] instead.
+- The `systemd-nspawn` utility [v253.9 started
+  failing](https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/29174) with pre-mounted
+  `<buildroot>/proc` directory (used like `systemd-nspawn -D <buildroot>`).
+  The resulting Mock error, per several reports like [this
+  one](https://github.com/fedora-copr/copr/issues/2906), was rather cryptic:
+
+      # /usr/bin/systemd-nspawn -q -M 50743cd0fe0a4142b9b2dbb2c5f8eea6 -D /var/lib/mock/fedora-39-x86_64-bootstrap-1694347273.676351/root
+      Failed to mount /proc/sys (type n/a) on /proc/sys (MS_BIND ""): Invalid argument
+      Failed to create /user.slice/user-1000.slice/session-12.scope/payload subcgroup: Structure needs cleaning
+
+  Previous versions of `systemd-nspawn` silently over-mounted the `/proc`
+  filesystem so Mock simply could _always_ pre-mount `/proc` (with
+  `--isolation=simple` it is still needed).
+
+  To work-around this problem, new Mock now [stopped "pre-mounting"][PR#1214]
+  `<buildroot>/proc` directory when `--isolation=nspawn` (default) and the package
+  management downloaded with bootstrap image is used for **installing packages
+  into the bootstrap chroot**.
+- Mock automatically kills "orphan" processes started in buildroot (unwanted
+  "daemons").  These are typically started by DNF installation that trigger some
+  buggy scriptlet.  The corresponding code has been [moved][PR#1214] to a better
+  place which assures that such processes are **always** killed before "buildroot
+  in bootstrap" recursive bind-mount is unmounted.
+- Mock properly dumps Podman's standard error output to logs to allow the user
+  better diagnose related errors.  Per [issue#1191][] report.
+- Mock 5.0 release contained a bug causing that `postyum` hooks (in Mock plugins)
+  were not called.  In turn, e.g. `root_cache` locking mechanism [was
+  broken][issue#1186] causing Mock to wait for the lock unnecessary long.
+- Previous version of Mock used to bind-mount `/proc` and `/proc/filesystems` in
+  wrong order, eventually causing that `/proc/filesystems` was not visible (this
+  could affect some scriptlests from packages installed into such a chroot).  This
+  [has been fixed now][PR#1214].
+- The `--installdeps foo.spec` feature is implemented using the RPM Python API.
+  Previously we used the method `hdr.dsFromHeader()` to get the list of
+  `BuildRequires`.  This method has been removed from the Python RPM API (rpm
+  v4.19) in favor of the long-enough existing `rpm.ds(hdr, ...)` method.  Mock
+  [has started using `rpm.ds()` API call][PR#1223] to fix the [`AttributeError:
+  'rpm.hdr' object has no attribute 'dsFromHeader'`][issue#1203] traceback on
+  newer systems (e.g. Fedora 40+).
+- The `--shell` standard output is no longer affected by `podman image unmount`
+  output executed in the background (prints out the image ID).
+
+
+### mock-core-configs v39.1 changes
+
+- Mageia 9 to branched (released recently) and Cauldron retargeted to Mageia 10.
+- openSUSE Leap 15.3 became end-of-life at the end of 2022 and the corresponding
+  Mock configuration is now [end-of-life][PR#1175], too.
+- openSUSE Leap 15.5 configuration [added][PR#1175].
