Comment (by gk): Replying to [ticket:29981 boklm]: > By default the Tor Browser build is done inside containers, which we run using runc, which require root access. > > In some cases, such as F-Droid builds (#27539), this can be a problem. I think we should be able to add an option to do the builds without using containers. How would that help the F-Droid case given that F-Droid is taking just the signature for an app and applying that one to the built they made themselves? I mean the non-container build would then need to match our build done in a containerized setup so that F-Droid would get a bit-for- bit identical output. Maybe I am too pessimistic here but I'd be surprised if that worked out-of-the-box... -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/29981#comment:1> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
