Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-15967:
------------------------------------
You SHOULD keep your apps updated, but in the Docker world you don't do that by
"mutating your application image and running apt upgrade". Instead, you choose
well maintained base images that are responsive in building new images to fix
bugs and security issues. Both the major linux distros and Java do that. If you
look at Docker hub, then [Solr's image was refreshed 6 days

probably because [our base image,

released an update 7 days ago. So if you choose "solr:8" as a tag and simply
pull nightly, then you will get OS-level and Java-level patches as they become
available, and you use official image layers to do so.

> Hi there,
> it's surprisingly hard to install Solr in a way where I can guarantee to
> automatically get updates, especially security updates in a reliable manner,
> as well as get a documented way to start / run Solr on my distro of choice.
> What I am really looking for is an official rpm repository (and probably a
> deb repo too) that I can add to my package manager and then install a package
> that will give me all the updates I want, as well as starts the database with
> a systemd file that is known good.
> I in particular am looking for a centos 7 repository.
> I think, that this would make installation of Solr so much easier.
> What do you say?
