Problem: conflicting requests: package is filtered out by modular filtering

[k0ste]

Hi, I can't resolve problem with mock 5.3. I need dependency golang 1.21, but in appstream official repo version is 1.20. In spec defined:

BuildRequires: golang >= 1.21

And 1.21 version was pushed to <my_custom_repo>. But by some reason this package is "filtered".

Mock cmd:

/usr/bin/mock --config-opts='cache_topdir=/rpmbuild/cache' --enable-network --addrepo https://<my_custom_repo>  -r centos-stream-8-x86_64 --buildsrpm --spec=/rpmbuild/netdata.spec --resultdir=/rpmbuild/output/centos-stream-8-x86_64 --sources=/rpmbuild/sources

Actual error

DEBUG util.py:461:  Error:
DEBUG util.py:461:   Problem: conflicting requests
DEBUG util.py:461:    - package golang-1.21.3-4.el8.x86_64 from <my_custom_repo> is filtered out by modular filtering

Is there possible solution to turn off this filter?

Thank you for the question!

Yes, if you want to use modular packages at the package build time, you probably want to enable the module by Mock, see the site-defaults documentation file:

# List of module commands to be executed when initializing chroot, before
# `chroot_setup_cmd`.  Each command is a pair like `(action, module_specs)`
# where `module_specs` is a comma-separated list of module specifications.
# The commands are executed in order they are configured here, and each
# `action` can be executed multiple times.
#
## Artificial example: (a) Disable any potentially enabled postgresql module
## stream, (b) enable _specific_ postgresql and ruby module streams,
## (c) install the development nodejs profile and (d) disable it immediately.
#config_opts['module_setup_commands'] = [
#  ('disable', 'postgresql'),
#  ('enable',  'postgresql:12, ruby:2.6'),
#  ('install', 'nodejs:13/development'),
#  ('disable', 'nodej

It is good idea to have a separate configuration config file.. because mock caches the modular configuration
into the root cache. So anytime you change this config you should at least do --scrub=all (or similar).

Can you please provide example, cant figure out how to make to eat this arguments

Can't find a way to resolve this problem via module_setup_commands. Only way I find is:

trim_repo="$(echo "${ADD_REPO}" | grep -oP 'https://\K\S+' | tr '/' '_' | tr -d '.-')"
cat <<EOF >> "/etc/mock/${MOCK_CONFIG}.cfg"
config_opts['dnf.conf'] += """
[${trim_repo}]
name=${trim_repo}
enabled=1
module_hotfixes=1
"""
EOF

Finally golang package installed without issues
