What does this mean exactly?
The gophers are https://podman.io/ which builds and runs containers. My guess is they are building the same application in multiple distros for their one application
Like
my-app-nix my-app-fedora my-app-alpine
It’s a common practice so users can choose the distro they prefer when launching your container in their stack.
Containers maybe?
why are you using three different distros to build a single application?
Probably nixos to run distrobox with fedora, then using podman to run debian to compile the C application.
Well, first I tried compiling it on my own distro (which isn’t listed in the image). Then I tried compiling it with the help of nix-shell (that’s the NixOS logo).
Then I figured, fuck it, let’s just launch a whole container for compiling, so I tried the distros listed in the official documentation (Debian and Fedora), which, you guessed it, didn’t work either.
This is a hobby project that I’m trying to compile, so this definitely won’t be the best showing of C, but still just astronomically more painful than it should be…
