Mock doesn't cross-compile, it only runs binaries that can be run natively on the base system. It just so happens that x86_64 can run i686 binaries natively, so you can build i686 on x86_64. Since i686 cannot run x86_64, you can't build x86_64 on i686. -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
