We ship a preinstalled device that uses systemd. I would love to use containerisation to isolate different software dependencies. Is it possible to ship a podman container in a package install, e.g. a .deb?
- lukaslalinsky 2y agoIt would be just a super simple package with one config file for the container, dependency on podman, and maybe a post-install script for creating system account and directories for data. I haven't done this myself for containers, but I don't see any reasons why it wouldn't work.
- robertlagrant 2y agoThat makes sense - sorry I wasn't 100% clear but I was more thinking about how to deliver the container itself inside the package, and whether Podman helps with that.
