How long do you plan on using a Docker image based on Ubuntu Xenial?

Hello Matt,

Thanks for your reply. I started a conversation about the repo types here a while back:

Docker image includes unneeded Ubuntu "restricted" (non-free) repo

I believe this come from our upstream docker image, at this line https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker/blob/master/image/base/Dockerfile#L3 That line points to the official Ubuntu image from the Docker library which has this line: https://github.com/tianon/docker-brew-ubuntu-core/blob/dist-amd64/xenial/Dockerfile#L2 where it adds this archive that contains the restricted lines you found. I don’t know if there is an official Ubuntu docker image with those disabled.

Using main and universe alone would be a great improvement. Chances are that you won’t need anything outside of main.

The place I work at cares very much about using fully free distributions, so Ubuntu “man” alone might not be sufficient for our purposes, but I’ll talk to my team about it.

Thanks,
Andrew
