@jameslamb Thank you for taking the time to contribute to the project. That
command you're running is independent of the main build from root. It appears
that it's probably failing because those tar.gz artifacts have not been built
and thus will not have been copied to the SOURCES folder. Run the following
from project root: `mvn clean install -DskipTests` followed by the command you
posted above from `metron-deployment`. The `SOURCES` and `BUILDROOT` folders
should typically exist in
`<project-root>/metron-deployment/packaging/docker/rpm-docker/`. I'm not sure
what the `/root` path business is all about, but I hope this helps.

> Key: METRON-1650
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-1650
> Project: Metron
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: James Lamb
> Priority: Minor
>
> I have been looking through the project source code, and found that the
> packaging docker containers are bigger than they need to be.
> The containers' size could be cut substantially by:
> * Grouping as many commands as possible into as few RUN stages as possible
> * Taking advantage of `yum clean` and `apt-get clean`
> * Removing artifacts pulled with `wget`
> * Removing unused libraries or libraries only needed at build time (like
> `tar` and `wget`)
> I am creating this issue but will soon submit a PR to address it.
> Thank you for considering my proposal!
