Apparently, a non-existent nsswitch.conf causes a very misleading host
resolution, differing from the defaults people are used to.
According to
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/22846#issuecomment-346377144, glibc
says the default is "dns [!UNAVAIL=return] files".
This means, `/etc/hosts` isn't really honored, causing all sorts of
unexpected behaviour.
Let's prevent this, and first ask `/etc/hosts` before querying DNS, like
we do on NixOS too.
skopeo 1.4.x doesn't accept --src-tls-verify as a flag to the *program*,
only as a flag to copy; we must pass it after the "copy" verb, or it
will fail with:
> FATA[0000] unknown flag: --src-tls-verify
skopeo will disable the progress bar if it detects that stdout isn't a
TTY - in order to make it think that stdout _isn't_ a TTY and therefore
avoid it printing a lot of "…" on separate lines, we pipe the output
through cat.
This changes the output from:

Storing signatures
For https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/125211 I tried to test
the fetcher with
nix-build -A dockerTools.examples.nixFromDockerHub --option substitute false
But it failed. I haven't figured out the cause, but the outputs
match, so it's probably the hashing method (flat/recursive) that
changed at some point. (The names did match.)
Adds includeStorePaths, allowing the omission of the store paths.
You generally want to leave it on, but tooling may disable this
to insert the store paths more efficiently via other means, such
as bind mounting the host store.
The `docker load` command supports loading tarballs that contain
multiple docker images with their respective image names and tags. This
enables distributing these images as a single file which simplifies the
release of software when an application requires multiple services to
run.
However, pkgs.dockerTools only create tarballs with a single docker
image and there exists is no mechanism in nixpkgs to combine the created
tarballs. This commit implements merging of tarballs in a way that is
compatible with `docker load`.
For images running on Kubernetes, there is no guarantee on how duplicate
environment variables in the image config will be handled. This seems
to be different from Docker, where the last environment variable value
is consistently selected.
The current code for `streamLayeredImage` was exploiting that assumption
to easily propagate environment variables from the base image, leaving
duplicates unchecked. It should rather resolve these duplicates to
ensure consistent behavior on Docker and Kubernetes.
It is now possible to pass a `fromImage` to `buildLayeredImage` and
`streamLayeredImage`, similar to what `buildImage` currently supports.
This will prepend the layers of the given base image to the resulting
image, while ensuring that at most `maxLayers` are used. It will also
ensure that environment variables from the base image are propagated
to the final image.
