Wolfi Container doesn't work with toolbox

[lduktus]

It seems the current wolfi image doesn't work with toolbox:

> toolbox create --image ghcr.io/ublue-os/wolfi-toolbox:latest wolfi
Created container: wolfi
Enter with: toolbox enter wolfi

> toolbox enter wolfi
Error: invalid entry point PID of container wolfi

> podman start --attach wolfi-test

A simple rm -rf /home/nonroot seems to work, at least the container doesn't exits. However I still can't enter the toolbox, which I haven't investigated further.

While you can delete /home/nonroot, toolbox still has some dependencies that wofli doesn't appear to provide at this time. I believe the issues are around missing PAM files at this point.

There are community builds for toolbox (much like this project) one of which is https://github.com/toolbx-images/images which has alpine support.

I've deleted the the nonroot user so wolfi-toolbox can "work" however, you will need to manually edit the sudoers file to enable the wheel group passwordless sudo.

Additionally, wolfi doesn't have the terminfo for xterm256-color so you'll need to copy that in place.

Thanks I will try, when I find some time these days.
