surtur 68d8fcd537 [skip ci] dockerhub issue: link to the write-up Alright, let me tell you what this is all about. 🐋 Docker builds (locally and also in DockerHub) started failing after glibc 3.34 has been updated during jan-feb 2021 and thas caught me on both fedora 33 and archlinux workstation/server boxes (talking OS, not containers now). A hotfix patch has been issued as a workaround to remedy failing builds - `bd4c5abe4d`. Recently, I have started building [`moby`](https://github.com/moby/moby) from sources myself (moby is `docker-{c,e}e`'s upstream that's directly being shipped on fedora instad of the "docker-\*" product) and installed it on my fedora 33 box, while archlinux gradually updated to a fairly recent docker (`Docker version 20.10.5, build 363e9a88a1` as of writing). Latest `moby` commit on which I was able to run `docker build` for this image on fedora 33 was [`dbc3365da2`](`dbc3365da2`). For these reasons I decided to revert the hotfix just today in [`dbeddd89be`](`dbeddd89be`), after which DockerHub builds started to fail again. That is because Dockerhub build servers are probably not running a latest master `moby`/`docker` and as such don't have the necessary fixes required to build images that run glibc >=3.34 (see the original hotfix commit message for more reasoning and references). That basically means that until they (the DockerHub) run a reasonably recent docker/moby, we're going to see just more of `dockerhub build: failing` and anyone expecting these images to work will either have to update in a similar fashion to what I've done or wait until the patched versions reach whatever distro you're using. Unless that distro happens to be Arch, cause then you're ok anyway :D 🐳		2021-03-09 12:25:49 +01:00

What you get

updated Arch Linux base image

That's just it. This makes it possible to just grab the image and install whatever it is you want on top later.

Purpose

Arch Linux image with freshly updated package base to build upon

Running the image

edit the yourlocalpath and containerpath variabled or remove them entirely (along with -v) if you have nothing to mount

docker run -it -v yourlocalpath:containerpath immawanderer/archlinux:latest

Building the image locally

create a new folder
grab the Dockerfile and place it in that folder
build the image locally

mkdir -pv mynewfolder
cd ./mynewfolder
wget https://git.dotya.ml/wanderer/docker-archlinux/raw/branch/master/Dockerfile
docker build --pull - < Dockerfile
