Hi Michael, thanks for the reply. I'm trying to create Dockerfiles for reproducible builds. I have a platform with components written in various languages, so I don't expect users to install all build tools to compile... So I strive to provide Dockerfiles that manage both compilation and deployment. Maybe it's a misunderstanding on my side to try to get both compilation and deployement in the same Dockerfile? Thanks a lot.
