potential space savings in container images #1396

I was poking a little bit around examining the container images

There is some image space to be recovered.

crunchy-pgbackrest:centos8-2.35-0 and crunchy-pgbouncer:centos8-1.15-3

Hm...we're running dnf clean etc. pretty much after each install command, unless we missed some. Something worth looking into.

@jansmets How did you introspect this?

jansmets commented 2 years ago

You can use docker export (or was it save, i always mix these up) to save the image, with all it's layers, to a tar file. If you then extract the tar it will give you subdirectories for each image layer.
