So long as it's possible to have an incompatible version of runc installed, we're going to want to easily point to another version, as we already allow for with the "run" command. Signed-off-by: Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com> Closes: #76 Approved by: nalind
buildah - a tool for building OCI images
Note: this package is in alpha.
The buildah package provides a command line tool which can be used to
- create a working container, either from scratch or using an image as a starting point
- mount a working container's root filesystem for manipulation
- unmount a working container's root filesystem
- use the updated contents of a container's root filesystem as a filesystem layer to create a new image
- delete a working container or an image
Installation notes
Prior to installing buildah, install the following packages on your linux distro:
- make
- golang
- bats
- btrfs-progs-devel
- device-mapper-devel
- gpgme-devel
- libassuan-devel
- git
- bzip2
In Fedora, you can use this command:
dnf -y install \
make \
golang \
bats \
btrfs-progs-devel \

export GOPATH=`pwd`
git clone https://github.com/projectatomic/buildah ./src/github.com/projectatomic/buildah
cd ./src/github.com/projectatomic/buildah
