you should always do all work in mock, this will allow you to esure that the compose environment matches the target environment
 +
 +
to setup a Fedora 25 x86_64 environment you would run the following
 +
 +
$ mock -r fedora-25-x86_64 --init
 +
$ mock -r fedora-25-x86_64 --install lorax-lmc-novirt git vim-minimal pykickstart

if you wanted a different arch or release you would use the correct mock configuration file
