You should be just fine with CentOS for most cases. Check out the new Fedora Toolbox command ('toolbox') — this makes it super-easy to launch and maintain "pet" containers using podman, and you could use this to provide a Fedora working environment for when you need newer stuff. (Or conversely people running a Fedora OS can do the opposite with a CentOS container.) One thing I'm curious about, though -- you mention installs getting to be a drag. Have you tried the update process in the last few releases? It's basically like applying a big set of updates, with no reinstall required. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm at fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader
