1 year ago There's also another problem with the jessie image: if I understand correctly it was made when the jessie-updates repository was available but it looks like this repository was deleted and not moved to archive (https://superuser.com/a/1417751). So when I try to install some packages it fails because it cannot install dependencies that are older than the already installed versions:
$ docker run --rm --ulimit nofile=1024:1024 debian/eol:jessie bash -c "apt-get update; apt-get install -y build-essential"
[same apt-get update result as in the comment above]

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
build-essential : Depends: gcc (>= 4:4.9.1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: g++ (>= 4:4.9.1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: dpkg-dev (>= 1.17.11) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.Trying to install the dependencies manually leads to errors like this:
# apt-get install -y cpp-4.9

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.I guess rebuilding the image will fix that since jessie-updates cannot be used.

The image for Debian Jessie on Docker Hub seems to contain https://github.com/debuerreotype/docker-debian-eol-artifacts/commit/6367504da56fda73f5f9bd5542d13e44b2ffbb92#diff-d05c18c4bd37fc62338a374267def1cd34cda8a03f5191e4337a1dc59fdc9f54 and hasn't been updated ever since.
Now, as of https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2023/03/msg00006.html / https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2023/02/msg00004.html, the repositories for Debian Jessie are no longer available in the main archive, causing
aupt updateto fail:Building the image locally from the
dist-jessiebranch and runningapt updatein there, works fine, because it doesn't contain the main archive.Can the image on Docker Hub be updated?
