Hello,
How can I install any package manager in the TorizonCore (and not in a Debian based container running in the TorizonCore) ?
I am using verdin imx8m plus
Thank you.

Hello @Mouadh ,
Can you share your motivation/use case to use TorizonCore this way?

Hello,
I want to forward the can0 to a virtual can that I may be able to access from inside a docker container (without --net=host), some packages have to be installed as far as I understand…

Which packages are you referring to? Can you point us to the documentation that you followed?

Best regards,

Hello @Mouadh,

As @josep.tx asked, what packages are you referring to?

Also, I quickly wanted to point out here that you could do the network configuration for your docker container in the docker-compose file as well if you don’t want to execute the run command with --net=host every time. You will have to add network_mode: "host" in the docker-compose file for the necessary service. Please see the Compose file reference for more details.

If you think that you really need to add the package to the base OS image, the only option is to build your custom TorizonCore image from Yocto. You will find more details here and also in this article.
