after upgrading to 5.3 one of our rpmbuild fail with a unknown error:
error: line 818: second %post
which is not true. first of all there is no line 818 and the same src.rpm build on 5.2 and fedora too.

while we also encounter a problems with epel's mock-0.9.6 no longer works with 5.3's rpm.

when we downgrade to 5.2 rpm* and popt everything works again both our build and mock start to working. so it seems to clear there is some rpm bug somwhere.

Please provide a reproducer for the rpmbuild failure.

What problems are you seeing with mock? "No longer works" is very, very vague.

[Levente (levente-redhat-bugs)]

for mock just see this long thread, since it's problem for many people as almost all mock build will fail:
http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2009-April/074912.html
i try to put together a source for rpmbuild.

[Levente (levente-redhat-bugs)]

there was a bug in our spec file (actualy there were 2 spec file in the tarball which works with previous rpm but not with this) and there is a bug in pam #497570. so this bug can be closed

[Panu (panu-redhat-bugs)]

Closing as per comment 3.

FYI, the pam %post failure is now tracked in bug 499048.
