Yeah, it's a little awkward since it's not really made for that purpose but it does work well, a la: mock --init mock --install <packages> mock --shell Of course you need to set a default release and arch to use or just use the "-r fedora-<release>-<arch>" option. I frequently use this method to run rpmlint on installed packages without having to pollute my main system.
