Yeah, thats quite interesting. I would be happy to move to a pipeline
thats less fragile here. :)
There's also talk about moving things to use ImageBuilder, but I don't
think it does containers.
We can, and should, have RFEs for Image Builder to do containers. I know we need this internally as well. It may farm that out to buildah in the background or something, but that remains to be determined.
In the interest of commonality across the Fedora/CentOS/RHEL ecosystem, I really think using Image Builder as the tool to build images is the best approach.
