Comment 1 Steven Haigh 2017-07-08 06:59:47 UTC 
On a side note, I can confirm I can still build packages targeting epel-7-x86_64 without an issue.

Only epel-6-x86_64 building is broken.
Comment 2 Steven Haigh 2017-07-08 07:41:59 UTC 
Rolling back to mock-1.3.4-1.el7.noarch.rpm and I can build again.

Hunting logs from here:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=906776

This stands out:
- Do not use systemd-nspawn for EL6 chroots [RHBZ#1456421]

It seems the magic line is:
config_opts['use_nspawn'] = False

If you have modified the epel-6-x86_64.cfg file (say, to add more repos), this file will not get updated.

> If you have modified the epel-6-x86_64.cfg file (say, to add more repos), this file will not get updated.

If you modify it, then during installation is created epel-6-x86_64.cfg.rpmnew file and it is up to you to merge it. I highly recommend running `rpmconf -a` after every upgrade. Or `rpmconf -o mock` if you want to just merge mock' configs.
