Re: Using docker for Debian packaging work ?

I'd be interested in a few things - a Debian index which I can trust (images) - I'm keen

to help add OpenPGP to Docker upstream. I'd also love it if dbuilder (or whatever)

could tag layers with build-deps installed (tagging something like foobar:1.2.3-1),

so that building the package wouldn't have to install the b-d's each time - and since

they're defined in terms of the Debian layer in the Dockerfile, we can keep each

image super small.

Hi.

I've been investigating the use of Docker containers on Debian
(resulting in the creation of a few wiki pages [0]), and intend to use
them more for Debian related tasks. Btw, thanks a lot for the packaging
of docker and other guides already available around (I tried to collect
what I spotted in the Wiki).

I'm wondering if there are some bits of docs you would like to share if
you're using docker regularly for Debian maintenance.

I'm curious if anyone investigated the use of docker for git-pbuilder,
fonr instance. Not that I'm sure there would be benefits compared to
other current backends of git-pbuilder. I'm pretty sure that some may
find a limitation in that Docker only supports building for amd64 over
an amd64 system, currently.

May I suggest to add more links / pages, starting from
https://wiki.debian.org/PackagingWithDocker ?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
