My lab partner runs Arch and he wants to become a Fedora Package maintainer and when we got to
we noticed that he doesn’t usednf on his desktop.
I suggested he consider distrobox and he asked which base image to use.
I see the link to the community images repo at:
but I wonder if there are any specific suggestions for building a box to packaging (it has to have gpg and other things…) ?
Well in his case, he runs Arch Linux, not Fedora.
His native package manager is pacman, not dnf
So I suggested that he set up a container running Fedora and then do all of his copr/koji, whatever, inside that container.
Then I realized that I need to do a similar thing (I think) on my Aurora-DX laptop. So I have been following the Fedora Package docs to see how far I can get on my own.
Of course, there may already be a container definition file somewhere…
