I have to admit to being somewhat confused by the diff; this looks
rather large for a simple change to Makefile.in:

 patches/debian-changes-1.0.8-2 |  455 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I expected this to mostly be auto* changes, which it is.  I'm not sure
they were intended changes, however; for example:

+--- mock-1.0.8.orig/configure
++++ mock-1.0.8/configure
+@@ -1,6 +1,6 @@
+ #! /bin/sh
+ # Guess values for system-dependent variables and create Makefiles.
+-# Generated by GNU Autoconf 2.63 for mock 1.0.8.
++# Generated by GNU Autoconf 2.63 for mock 1.0.3.

The upstream changelog also seems to have lost all entries from 1.0.3
onwards; there's also a set of changes to
mock/{backend,util,yum_cache}.py which are reverted relative to 1.0.8-1.

Regards,
