Re: [arch-general] On containers. WAS: Re: snapcraft.io ...

Another very useful case would be using containers as a chroot replacement for having clean (only what's in the recipe), reproducable build environments for building arch packages. It would also allow installing makedeps only in the container/chroot or make cross-compilation easier to manage.

Are there plans to support this in makepkg? I believe xbps has this.

Out of curiosity, what's wrong with makechrootpkg? -- GPG fingerprint: 871F 1047 7DB3 DDED 5FC4 47B2 26C7 E577 EF96 7808
