The 'mock' wiki reveals that the default builddir is /var/lib/mock - and 
says 'make sure you have enough room.'

I had old builds in there.  I don't know what else is taking up space in 
that LVM volume, but I've deleted the old builds and started a new one...

-------------

The new builds (3a918bd) for F29 and el7 completed, installed and are 
running.  After each build the script automatically clears 
/var/lib/mock, and 'df -h /var/lib/mock' now shows 13 of 50 GiB available.

The relics that caused the problem were probably from builds that had 
been forcibly stopped.

And the new channel-scan output?  Very pretty, but boring.  No actual 
channel changes seen :-)
