Bug#1027879: ITP: cri-o -- implementation of the Kubernetes CRI to enable using OCI compatible runtimes



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : cri-o
  Version         : 1.26
  Upstream Author : Multiple Authors
* URL             : https://cri-o.io/
* License         : Apache 2.0

  Description     : implementation of the Kubernetes CRI to enable using OCI compatible runtimes

Also I want to quatate RFP (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=979702):

cri-o provides an alternate runtime to containerd to run pods and containers in Kubernetes.
cri-o provides the following avantages:
- lightweight, specifically target to kubernetes, so it has a clear compatibility matrix with k8s
- uses systemd by default as cgroup driver instead of cgroupfs, which is a better choice than 
cgroupfs when the init system is systemd (see https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/production-environment/container-runtimes/#cgroup-drivers)

FWIW cri-o is used as container runtime in the Suse and Red Hat Kubernetes offerings.

Upstream expressed interessed to have cri-o package in Debian, but in the end provided its own package
on the OpenSuse Build Service (having to unvendor the dependencies being the challenge)
