neurodebian / dockerfiles Goto Github PK

see at the bottom of the page https://hub.docker.com/_/neurodebian/

@tianon I think I have no authority over that page/comments. whom should I pester? ;)

@teanon what do you think?

quite frequently I need to work in a container which also points to contrib/non-free components since some quite popular packages are non-free... it is kinda annoying to always require installing vim or running some sed command to enable contrib/non-free. So I wondered if we could streamline it somehow. I see possibly

1. proiding neurodebian:release-nonfree (e.g. neurodebian:sid-nonfree) flavors as well which would be identical to free, just with apt source adjusted accordingly. IMHO it is the preferable way
2. provide a copy of apt .sources file with those nonfree suits enabled but the whole file .disabled, so if needed those could simply be mv/cp'ed over... but that is suboptimal since you need to remember/know all apt sources files to copy/modify

so, do you think going 1. way would be ok? any specific setup I could aim for, so e.g. -nonfree images could be created on top of neurodebian default (main only) ones?

thanks in advance for the feedback

Could someone please help with installing python3.8 in neurodebian:buster?

The following fails (it works for python3.7; I need 3.8 as a requirement of installing NESTML):

FROM neurodebian:buster

More descriptive, and could be used programatically

When adding `FROM neurodebian' to a dockerfile, the image get stuck at:

[...]
Participate in the package usage survey? [yes/no]

Is there any tip or extra config I should use to skip / move the build forward?

Hi,

The NeuroDebian docker package is building and running fine at my end for ARM64v8 architecture.

Branch used to build is:

stretch

Please suggest, what needs to be done to raise the request to add support for ARM64v8 arch at official docker library too.

Regards,

Container base images should always be assumed to be noninteractive since they are intended to be used in Containerfiles.

Add this to all images.
