"and in the real world you do configure; make install then"

In the real world, one gets an existing RPM .spec file, edits it for the required source one is about to build, and then runs:

  rpmbuild --clean -ba software.spec
once one has RPM's there is no need for Docker, as multiple applications can be cleanly installed, upgraded or removed on the system, and the entire system can be automatically PXE booted and provisioned by Kickstart without a single line of glue code.

Say no to hacking with Docker and make install instead of formal system engineering.
