Ok, I lied about not posting another mock message today. You can dock
my mock pay 50%...

Attached is an updated man page for mock. Please take a moment to look
it over (man ./mock.1) and see if there are any egregious errors.

.SH "DESCRIPTION"

Mock is a simple chroot/rpm building program. It doesn't do anything
terribly fancy other than populate a chroot with the contents
specified by a configuration file, then build any input SRPM(s) in
that chroot. 
.LP
The content of a chroot is specified by the configuration
specified with the \fB\-r\fR option. A default configuration file is
specified in /etc/mock/default.cfg, which is usually a symlink to one
of the installed configurations.

.TP 
\fB\-\-arch=\fR\fIARCH\fP

.SH "COMMANDS"

\fBchroot\fR \- run the specified command within the chroot (which must already be initialized)
.TP
\fBclean\fR \- purge the chroot tree
.TP
\fBshell\fR \- start an interactive shell in the specified chroot
.TP 
\fBrebuild\fR \- If no command is specified, rebuild is assumed. Rebuilds the specified SRPM(s)
.SH "FILES"

\fI/var/lib/mock\fP \- directory where chroots are created
