Recently, Bitnami announced that secure container images would only be available under a paid plan, and that they would stop maintaining most of their previous images, except for a few open-source projects. Bitnami container images are based on the minideb image, which includes fewer packages than a standard Debian image. I started wondering whether I could replace this with a Distroless image built using Bazel and maintain it myself.This blog explains how minideb and Distroless images are built.
