why are you using three different distros to build a single application?
Probably nixos to run distrobox with fedora, then using podman to run debian to compile the C application.
Well, first I tried compiling it on my own distro (which isn’t listed in the image). Then I tried compiling it with the help of nix-shell (that’s the NixOS logo).
Then I figured, fuck it, let’s just launch a whole container for compiling, so I tried the distros listed in the official documentation (Debian and Fedora), which, you guessed it, didn’t work either.
This is a hobby project that I’m trying to compile, so this definitely won’t be the best showing of C, but still just astronomically more painful than it should be…
Which one?
This game: http://crawl.develz.org/
It’s packaged for my distro, but I’d like to play Nightly builds.
The game is developed for fun by a community, so I don’t want to claim that this is peak documentation or build logic for a C application, but simultaneously, there’s not many programming languages where I would have the thought to launch a different operating system just to compile…
What does this mean exactly?
The gophers are https://podman.io/ which builds and runs containers. My guess is they are building the same application in multiple distros for their one application
Like
my-app-nix my-app-fedora my-app-alpine
It’s a common practice so users can choose the distro they prefer when launching your container in their stack.
Containers maybe?
