#3500 Allow network to be enabled when building packages
Opened by cappyishihara. Modified

Close Issue

Currently, kojid forces mock to disable network when building packages, and only enable them when building live images or building packages from SCM.

I know this is for reproducibility, but I think it would be nice to sacrifice reproducibility sometimes by having an extra tag option that will enable network for all builds.

I also wouldn't mind having this option available on a per-tag basis. There are some cases where it'd be better to be able trade reproducibility for maintainability and user satisfaction.

It would make sense to me to have some system-wide option to allow this (e.g. mock_allow_rpmbuild_networking_override=boolat hub.conf), so one can be sure that it is wholy reproducible environment if set to False. If this is set to True then tags can define extra mock.rpmbuild_networking=bool. Both would be False by default. @mikem?
