My apologies for being unclear: I'm saying that in the case where you're building from source during the build of your service container, you're almost always better off building from source in a separate container and then either turning that into a deb or other consumable format.

They suddenly have to either download or recreate whatever debs/tarballs etc you've used. I think the real problem is that Dockerfiles aren't expressive enough yet. At the very least we need a more user friendly method to run several commands in single layer.
