Like it’s e.g. done in Manticore Search – https://github.com/manticoresoftware/manticoresearch/tree/master/dist/build_dockers

With the script there’s still a higher risk of an issue since you don’t control what is in the system before you run the script. With an image/container you know for sure the environment will be 100% the way it’s supposed to be.

Thanks for your feedback.
Sure you can clone only branch. And script works well for RHEL8. We prepare packages for RHEL8 using this script and the same approach.

The repo is quite big, could we clone only the branch we are going to use as base? (git clone -b branch –single-branch)
Could we add RHEL8 support to the script? It looks like is not contemplating it (not disabling mysql module and pulling jemalloc v5).
I would also like to see future blog posts about the following steps: how to format code prior contributions, what to do when your contribution is ready, what to expect during reviews…
