Yeah, on bsd jails are basically shared because of zfs, I should use more alpine, but more complex applications often need something closer to debian, and my alpine fu isn’t very good yet.
We really, REALLY need a dockerfile for lxc so you call lxc-build and it pulls and compiles/configures everything for you automatically.
Sadly my daily driver is getting pretty old and slow so i typically dont put big distros on lxc. Maybe NixOS can he configured to be super slim. New weekend project.
With the addition of Alpine Linux containers are now barely bigger than the application itself.

Thats the dream.
I want to look into NixOS. They basically have a one file config and install for your entire system. Wonder how well it works in lxc.
I wouldn’t want Nixos as my base, but yeah, it sounds like the ultimate lxc base.
