Calling linux32 does not work, apparently. But also, it does not seem to be needed?

EDIT: on x86_64 we do need linux32 as the entry point, though:

❯ docker run -ti  --platform linux/i386 --entrypoint bash ghcr.io/r-hub/evercran/1.9.1:latest
881072a1ccd3:~# arch
x86_64

So we should call linux32 on x86_64 hosts, but not on aarch64 hosts. Or rather, if arch is x86_64 then we should call it, otherwise not. Maybe we can do this.

Including the 0.x and 1.x images.

Or we can just not call linux32 for now, so that the containers start at least. R was already built with i386, so that is fine, and people will need to call linux32 manually for now.

This seems like a good temporary solution.

On my Macbook M2 indeed the following works:

docker run -ti  --platform linux/i386 --entrypoint bash ghcr.io/r-hub/evercran/pre:latest

This would be nice in the README.

@hughjonesd A PR is always welcome! (But no pressure...)

hughjonesd commented

OK, PR1525 addresses this.

gaborcsardi commented

@hughjonesd Where is that PR?

hughjonesd commented

Sorry. Wrong issue, wrong repo!!!

OK, this should be fixed now, and Sarge images should work OOTB, on arm64 and x86_64 hosts as well.

gaborcsardi commented

Indeed all images should now work without extra arguments OOTB.
