Hi,
Thanks for reply! I've just wanted to let you know about this issue
after spending couple hours trying to understand why my container
works on the one host and don't work on another one.
I think there are couple things which can be done here. First, it
would be great to modify the comment as proposed in PR 8200. If I knew
that this test is fuzzy, I would not write this mail.
Second, I didn't know about $container env until I read systemd
sources. There are a lot of fragmental information about running
systemd in docker in Internet, it would be great to have official
systemd-point-of-view on this topic.
