@Larvitz how'd you get RHEL in distrobox? 🤔 ... does subscription-manager work?
Show threadLarvitz  Jun 14, 2024
@maxamillion Thats an UBI Container Image, which doesn't need subscription-manager
Show threadAdam   Jun 14, 2024
@Larvitz ohhh okay, UBI isn't *really* RHEL ... it's kinda RHEL ... if you squint and ignore ~70% of the package repo 😉

@maxamillion @Larvitz Fun fact, if you subscribe the host machine (yes even Fedora) then UBI containers automatically upgrade to full RHEL containers.

I regularly see folks state that they use a RHEL rebuild distro because managing RHEL subscriptions is too painful. 5 years or so ago, I might have been inclined to agree with them. That said, things can improve over time, so let's check out the current state. The most notable improvement in the last few years is a thing called Simple Content Access (SCA). #RHEL #RedHat https://access.redhat.com/articles/simple-content-access
