Joe McDonnell commented on IMPALA-10264:
----------------------------------------
Kudu has Dockerfiles that build Impala from a source tarball inside a Docker
container and use the resulting context to generate a Docker image. That is one
way to do this:

> Add ability to build docker images for a different Linux distribution
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: IMPALA-10264
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-10264
> Project: IMPALA
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Infrastructure
> Affects Versions: Impala 4.0
> Reporter: Joe McDonnell
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently, the build for Impala's docker images builds on the local host OS
> and then makes the binaries available in the docker build context. The docker
> image thus needs to run the same Linux distribution and version as the host.
> Ubuntu 16 docker images should be built on an Ubuntu 16 host. Centos 7 docker
> images should be built on a Centos 7 host.
> It would be useful to be able to build docker containers for a different
> Linux distribution. Developers often develop on Ubuntu 16, but it would be
> useful to be able to build Centos 7 docker images to use in other contexts.
> To do this, we could build the binaries inside a docker container of a
> matching version as the docker image we want to produce. This would construct
> the docker build context, and the binaries would always match. An Ubuntu 16
> machine could produce Centos 7 docker containers. Hypothetically, this could
> also use QEMU to build ARM docker containers on an x86 host.
