PLEASE REJECT THE SHIP, I AM SHIPPING ON MACONDO. An OCI image, with a purpose of being used in Distrobox for gaming on. Re implementation of Ublue Steambox.

I fixed a few minor bugs and did one big change: Introduced images for other GPU vendors.


It wasn’t that hard of a task, since most of the infrastructure were already in place. The hard part was figuring out how am I going to do that and troubleshooting.


I also added a few utilities to the image, most notably Greenlight and goverlay.


There’s not that much to write about. This project is a pretty boring one.


If OCI layering didn’t work as it does, I would be using almost a terabyte of github storage to store those images (3gb per images6 images45 days image retention).


The project is officially ready to be shipped (or so I hope, the reviewers are scary /s).

Ship #1 Pending review

I made an OCI image for gaming in distrobox. I made it mainly because I hated how imperative gaming is, and I didn’t want that on my nixos system host.


I’m happy with how it turned up. The image is fully functional and I was easily able to integrate it to my config.


The hardest part of the project was by far escaping potential allegations of coping Steambox, which didn’t went that good.


There’s still room for improvement, so I might return to this project later.

I added my modpack to the image! Now Prism Launcher comes preinstalled with instance using that modpack.


I couldn’t be able to create expose scripts for lutris and heroic, mainly because I was too lazy to do that and I couldn’t find a place where those launchers would reliably put icons for the games.


With that, I consider the project complete. I’m looking forward to integrating it with my system and I don’t expect groundbreaking changes any time soon

I finally did something original!


I added a script that exposes games from the container to the host. I only got steam games working for now, but I plan to implement lutris, heroic and prism if that’s possible.

I basically finished the project, with only 4 hours on clock. Good time, considering I have no prior experience with Containerfiles, but I didn’t really had to do much work.

I basically re implemented steambox from the Ublue ecosystem, with few small tweaks.

I’m generally happy with how it turned, but I would like to have more personal things to it.

Despite almost being finished, there’re still many things I want to do, so I don’t expect to ship soon, at least not until Saturday.
