docker-rpm-builder v1.26 released
by Alan Franzoni 01 Mar '16

01 Mar '16

Hello, I've mostly sent this kind of announcements on buildsys-fedora, while I believe this mailing list would be far more suited. https://github.com/alanfranz/docker-rpm-builder docker-rpm-builder, basically, is a way to run plain old rpmbuild within the target distribution of choice, without the need of setting up virtual machines or managing state and leftover things. It should work on any host distro that supports docker, and on OSX with kitematic/docker-machine/boot2docker . It's being usually in real-world scenarios for building packages since at least one year, mostly for RHEL 5-6-7, with good results, and it's pretty stable nowadays; I wouldn't know what to add feature-wise, and I haven't received bug reports for a while (although this statement probably calls for problems :-) ). bye, Alan
