I suspect that maybe the compiler wasn't properly installed in the container ?

Maybe just a typo in your Dockerfile? You're installing `g++9`, but the package name is `g++-9`.

Ahh good catch! It works now! Thanks :)

The build as well as the unittests finished successfully.
The entire run took close to 70 minutes. This was a linux container with 4 CPUs and 10G RAM.


Sounds about right. There are a couple heavy modules that instantiate tens of thousands of functions when building phobos unittests.

Which files should be kept once the task completed and what should happen with them ?
On success I could add a package task.


There's 'make install'. I probably wouldn't prune anything copied during that recipe, as you'll lose integration with C, C++ and LTO compilers if any of those components are missing.

I would create a prefix for make install, install to that location, tar that folder and keep the tarball.


Yes, that works, IIRC the same was done for the historical binary tarballs.

Also, on failure it would probably be a good idea to preserve the logs ?


If stdout/stderr is accessible after build, then the relevant logs can just be cat'd. For the testsuite, these be ./gcc/testsuite/gdc/gdc.log and ./x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/libphobos/testsuite/libphobos.sum (substitute the target where necessary).

The docs mention that it's possible to define GitHub actions, e.g. to email stuff. Would that be useful ?

In the event of failed builds, or builds where the success/fail status changed, perhaps. Having emails for every build would just be noise.
