Which is the latest Dockerfile? #495

Open eitsupi opened 2 years ago

eitsupi commented 2 years ago

The following repositories have not been updated, and the Dockerfiles has been updated in this repository (the ubuntu:jammy based Dockerfiles are only here)

https://github.com/rocker-org/ubuntu-lts https://github.com/rocker-org/bspm

And, the following two Dockerfiles for rocker/r-ubuntu:20.04 differ slightly in content.

https://github.com/rocker-org/rocker/blob/b7c3f8d3942080e8fd7bc7d0e635b924aa63e99f/r-ubuntu/focal/Dockerfile https://github.com/rocker-org/ubuntu-lts/blob/5eab0ec6176e87c82805da3f606138983dbdc701/focal/Dockerfile

Perhaps one of them needs to be removed (or, the repository needs to be archived) because it is confusing to the users?

I appear to have updated r-ubuntu from inside rocker/r-ubuntu, ignoring/forgetting the alternate (newer ?) ubuntu-lts. The repos are clearly a little muddled and need a cleanup but I do not have time for this right now, sadly, and I would appreciate it if you didn't archive any.

Let me know if there is anything I can help you with.

eddelbuettel commented 2 years ago

I think at one point I may have tried to move some Dockerfiles out of the 'main' rocker-org/rocker repo because I was (in part) very frustrated by Docker Hub falling back to / overwriting local README.md attempts. But then I likely stalled and now I made it worse net-net as the repos are in two places. I should really clean that up some more.

Yeah, it used to make sense to separate repositories for DockerHub README updates. But now it doesn't make sense and a monorepo might be better.
