+
+## [Release 6.3](https://rpm-software-management.github.io/mock/Release-Notes-6.3) - 2025-06-18
+
+
+### New features
+
+- The `hw_info` plugin now reports memory info units in [human readable scale][PR#1587].
+
+
+### Bugfixes
+
+- The `/bin/dnf` command is no longer hardcoded
+  [in the --calculate-build-dependencies code][issue#1592], and we
+  use the standard `config_opts['dnf5_command']` (or
+  `config_opts['dnf_command']`, respectively).
+
+- The mechanism for creating the `mock` group has been fixed again on
+  Fedora/RHEL, because the built-in RPM user creation mechanism only works on
+  F42 and newer.  Mock on older distributions returned back to using `%pre`
+  scriptlet.
+
+- The `mock-core-configs` package files were previously owned by the `mock`
+  group, same as a few files in `mock` package — which was unnecessary.  These
+  files are intended to be read-only and accessible by anyone.  This issue was
+  actually [causing install-order problems][issue#1588] when `mock-core-configs`
+  or `mock` was installed before `mock-filesystem`.  So newly those files have
+  the default `0644, root, root` ownership.
+
+- This release includes a fix for a Python 3.14 [incompatibility][issue#1594].
+
+  Mock refused to start as non-root user with Python 3.14.  This was because of
+  the change in behaviour of ProcessPoolExecutor in Python.  The code has been
+  altered to work with both old and new Python.
+
+### Mock Core Configs changes
+
+- Added AlmaLinux 10 configs
+- Add AlmaLinux kitten 10 x86_64_v2 config
+- Added Rocky Linux 10 configs
