That certainly would be nice, yes. It would also be awesome to be able to point apt inside the container at my apt-cacher-ng cache. As is, every failed attempt to do a cleanbuild downloads ~150 MB and, on a 3 Mbit link, takes 10-15 minutes. For development and debugging, we really need something like this. As is, it’s unbelievably painful. Michi. -- Snapcraft mailing list Snapcraft@lists.snapcraft.io Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/snapcraft
