I'm so sorry you spent time on this only for me to throw up an unmaintained notice, it's something I should've done sooner. I just want to be clear with people about the status of this project before they invest too much in it.
I certainly think acbuild is still a useful tool and there's space for it in the ecosystem, I just don't personally have the time anymore to work on it. I'd be happy to work with someone else to give them access to maintain the project if someone is willing to step up.
I added a thing to the PR pointing people to umoci, which is the closest thing to acbuild that I'm aware of.
https://github.com/projectatomic/buildah is now similar to acbuild

Oh cool, I wasn't aware of that project yet. Added a link to it.
Even though that build
is unmaintained, why does rkt
still recommend to use acbuild for building containers? Seems kind of odd that rkt links to an un-maintained tool... [1]
Bit disappointed too since it's nice to use non-Docker tools to build non-Docker containers.

ping @dgonyeo @jonboulle
@cdrage that cleanup is part of https://github.com/rkt/rkt/issues/3745.
Could you provide links to the alternative tools please? Also, could you merge the open PRs? I'm a bit let down I spent time on it.
