Fixes #2320

egede commented 7 months ago

There might be a way to satisfy both the issues raised here.

An option is introduced to give the location.
The default location is /cvmfs/cernvm-prod.cern.ch/cvm4 but other options could be gitlab-registry.cern.ch/lhcb-docker/os-base/centos7-devel:latest
The error message if things go wrong might be a bit more explaining of what can be changed.

Yes, I think you are right

Perhaps, in case cvmfs ist not accessible, it is possible to download an image in a similar way like the following:

Apptainer("docker://gitlab-registry.cern.ch/lhcb-core/lbdocker/slc6-build:latest")

The same location has an image which looks like the source of the image used for cvmfs ...

I'll merge this now and add on the prepareGaudiExec adjustment in a separate PR
