osbuilder: Evaluate whether makes sense to keep supporting the alpine rootfs

Open fidencio opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

This is part of a bigger effort to simplify what we support and ensure we actually test what we say we support.

The outcome of this should be:

  • Whether we support or not the alpine rootfs
  • Where do we use the alpine rootfs
  • Who's the person responsible for maintaining the alpine rootfs

All the information will end up going to a Wiki page so we can actually act whenever an issue shows up or an update has to be made.

FYI it can't even work on s390x (and ppc64le probably?) because you can't run a binary built against glibc on Alpine, and there is no Rust target for the agent on those platforms
