There are notes in the "mock" buglists
at:https://github.com/rpm-software-management/mock/issues/390 . The
short answer is "not very well".  The dnf tools in RHEL 7 and 8 are
not sufficient to actually run dnf for "mock". There are options to
bootstrap Fedora 31 from a container using "podman" to install the
zstd compressed binary RPM, but it's slow and painful and unreliable
unless you build your entire toolchain from a collection of SRPM's.

My notes and patches aare available
at:https://github.com/nkadel/mockrep, especially the editing of
fedora-31.tmpl in the mock-core-configs.spec./
