Listing installed packages inside an enroot container #94

Closed christina-winkler closed 3 years ago

Hi,

I want to customize my Enroot container and am currently facing the problem of listing the packages that I have already installed inside it. Is there any command to quickly view those ?

Thanks in advance ! Christina

It depends on the Linux distribution you have in the container, so it's not specific to enroot. For example on Ubuntu:

# dpkg -l
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend
|/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ Name                    Version                      Architecture Description

For yum based distros the command would be yum list installed. The nvidia folks also developed an excelent library to build HPC containers easily hpccm.

Closing since this more of a distro question rather than an enroot issue.
