docker.io/ncbi/blast-static:2.15.0 images haven't been built yet: https://hub.docker.com/r/ncbi/blast-static/tags

@nathanweeks , can you use the 2.15.0 docker image in https://hub.docker.com/r/ncbi/blast/tags ?

For the most part yes, though I've encountered at least a couple limitations:

  1. No linux/arm64/v8 builds, which can present problems with (at least) local development/use on macOS
  2. (Minor issue) the uncompressed image size of docker.io/ncbi/blast:2.15.0 is almost 2X larger docker/ncbi/blast-static:2.15.0 (~1.69 GB vs. ~858 MB), even though the dynamically-linked version should in principle be much smaller, primarily due to https://github.com/ncbi/docker/issues/23 (and to a lesser extent due to the retention of source code & build artifacts in image layers). Also more CVEs to get flagged by container security scanners.

Is a linux/arm64 build of ncbi/blast planned?

Yes, we'll update the docker images in the next month. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
