Of the three options for a successor to Leap presented in [1], none is containerized. Separately, openSUSE will also have a distribution that is a copy of the SUSE containerized distro, right?
What about "Linarite"?
The survey page [1] has a link to the Linarite description [2]. Two of its features are: - Won't use transactional updates - Won't use containers in the core of the OS, but will support running containerized workloads from ALP
I interpret that as not requiring the use of containers, but maybe I'm wrong, and some desktop apps will only be available containerized. If most of the apps are just the containerized stuff pulled from SUSE, then I don't see the point in making the OS core different.
As the person who wrote that part, you interpret it correctly. The aim is not to use containerised packages / apps / flatpaks unless there are certain apps that no one in the community steps up to maintain. Especially in the desktop area its not clear how much of what was in SLED will continue to be offered in the "Traditional" SUSE ALP Based distro so its one area where the openSUSE Community might need more help. If you have more questions i'll try and pay attention to this thread. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
