For those that want to see full source bootstrapped, deterministic, and container native alternative to buildroot check out https://codeberg.org/stagex

Can make a bootable OS with just a containerfile, for example:

This is beautiful. Deterministic, bootstrapped, and doesn't break the established Linux conventions! Shame it's musl-only, I would love to use something like that to build glibc-based apps for future redistribution as proper Linux binaries.

Musl is -much- easier to bootstrap than glibc with far fewer dependencies, that said, we are adding a x86_64-linux-gnu (glibc) cross compiler right now, among other target combinations.

That will make it possible to make packages for any other linux distro as you like.

Done.
