Nice work!

Let me break this out since I think it's an interesting topic! It's not a
criticism,
but more of an architectural point.
The Ansible `dnf` module doesn't (yet) work on AH. But even if it did,
I think installing development tools directly on a host should be
considered an anti-pattern:
- hosts: all
remote_user: root
tasks:
- name: install stuff
dnf: name={{ item }} state=latest
...
- golang
- btrfs-progs-devel
Basically, I think all builds should be done in a container. If you then
want to install
the *result* (e.g. an RPM) on the host, that makes sense. On the AH side,
we
now have support for local RPM install (but not yet *live* installs).
Personally
for development/hacking I tend to use `ostree admin unlock` still with a
flow
like this:
container$ sudo make install DESTDIR=/host
Although lately I've switched to only sharing /srv, so it's two steps:
container$ sudo make install DESTDIR=/srv/install
host$ rsync -rlv /srv/install/usr /usr/
The "no devel tools on the host" is also a goal of
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Workstation/Atomic
Nice! Thanks for the suggestion Colin, though, I still have to find some
time to exercise that playbook for atomic to fix it :( but it's on my todo
(or open to contributors :P)
