 From looking at the source code of "alternatives" this error is printed 
when the /etc/alternatives (altdir) or /var/lib/alternatives (admindir) 
directories don't exist.

When I inspect the buildroots of mock 1.1.15 and 1.1.10 tasks the 
directories are both there in each buildroot.

I'm going to start downgrading packages that I upgraded. I see no other 
solution.
