Relatedly, does anyone know if the security guarantees around distrobox have gotten any stronger? Last I looked, they promised nothing, but curious if there has been any movement there.
I would love if there was a seamless way to launch a distrobox os with a separate user home that could not touch my host system.
Likely a Real Hard Problem, but even some isolation would probably be an improvement of running everything under the same user account.
- gettodachoppa 3y agoLast I looked at Distrobox, DNS didn't work on Ubuntu LTS or Debian Bookworm. It was literally useless. How can anyone adopt an unpolished hobby project that only seems to be tested on the dev's Arch box is beyond me.
- jcastro 3y agoDistrobox and toolbox are developer tools, they explicitly are there as a convenience wrapper for podman/docker for development. If you want hard separation you'd need a VM. It'd be awesome if you could just --firecracker on distrobox create and get that. :D
