Running in container #123

Hi

Is it possible to have this daemon running in a container but so that it reports correctly the information on the host OS?

I am suspecting with enough time, tinkering and code analysis it's possible to bind mount whatever is needed or smth like that.

@stormi I know they did something for former rancher OS, but all those containers report wrong info to Xen Orchestra plus they report no version.

I tried writing my own to no avail. Maybe I need to bind mount some specific Linux Sockets or smth?

I need this for Fedora CoreOS. So is it just more let me use the word "linuxonix" (from "pythonic") to just layer this package on top of the rpm-ostree?

Thank you for reading this. I know Olivier Lambert proposed a new project for this thing but unfortunately I see people are stuck in the past. I mean the Citrix legacy code just had to go.
