Nope, sorry, no luck yet. I can use _mach_ to build a f11 chroot but
mock is not happy ("cannot open Packages index using db3 - No such file
or directory"). Removing all caches seems to help but I only can build a
chroot once. I have tried many times and I'm getting confused. It is an
old version of mock, maybe that's the reason. Sigh.
