CentOS - May 2018 - How to build nss-util.i686 on Centos 7 with mock

So, you have to have a full i386 build root to build i386 arch packages
.. then only a subset of those built packages are actually used as
multilib packages for x86_64.

as Nux! said, you have to use the i386 distro to build those.

The mock configs we use to build live here:

https://git.centos.org/tree/sig-core!bld-seven.git/master/mock

Obviously, you would need to modify them for your setup.

The file you are looking for is:
c7.1804.u.i686.cfg

I call it "epel" so it resembles the default profile, but there is no
EPEL 32bit for EL7.

I have the problem, that in mock shell the file
/etc/rpm/macros.dist has a wrong entry in the dist section.

This complicates the process, because yum has trouble
with dependency tracking.

You can (and likely should) pass in the %dist either by using this
option when starting mock:

-D "dist <value>"

Or by putting this value in your mock config file:

config_opts['macros']['%dist'] = "<value>"

Either way, when you start mock at that point, the dist should then be
whatever you want it to be.
