I’ve read that containers are preferred for development, but they aren’t persistent and it doesn’t seem like files such as /etc/fstab can be accessed through them when running distrobox (I enjoy editing such files using vim).

It’s also a bit annoying having to enter a specific container to run something like btop.

Are you supposed to layer them with rpm-ostree?

    I never said it was impossible, I said it is not for the op. The simple fact they don’t see an apparent way to install simple tools or modify fstab would be for me unacceptable, I prefer freeballing my OS, thank you very much. I simply assumed op was more like me and less like you.

      The terminal motd tells you exactly how to use the packages involved when you open it.
