[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RFE: Standardize on OCI images for test-suite, even locally (Issue #2643)

[Michal Domonkos]

Oh, this is actually a very good point. It's not something I had in mind previously, but it's yet another reason to just reuse the same Dockerfile image for both building and testing, indeed :smile: (which is in line with the planned solution of this ticket).

> Edit: I remember now (after re-reading some of the commentary in this ticket): the mktree.fedora case was needed to allow testing the locally built binary against that distro version, whereas the CI case is different. That was how and why it was so special. I'll just stock on some popcorn and sit back to see what happens in this space 😁

Ack, yes, that's the thing. We want both portability and integration with a local build for native development.

And yup, popcorn is in order, indeed :laughing:
