why 14.04 instead of trusty? #5

Hey guys,

this is maybe a stupid question, but is there a reason for FROM ubuntu:14.04 rather than FROM ubuntu:trustly? Are they the same?

Cheers and sorry for the silly question! :)

@odino they may or may not be the exact same image, but Trusty Tahr is the codename for 14.04 LTS.

odino commented 9 years ago

hey @pilwon my question was different :) it's kind of clear that they refer to the same major release, but I was wondering if there is any difference in using 14.04 rather than trusty :) I was thinking that probably using trusty you would get future updates like 14.04.xx...but Im not sure if thats the case

pilwon commented 9 years ago

@odino All the other dockerfile images depend on this image, therefore the idea was to target and lock down to a specific version for stability.

ah perfect, so its for stability! Then thanks for the clarification!
