Containers are great

I ran into an issue on one of my system-containers earlier today:

apk Unable to lock database: Resource temporarily unavailable

I thought about troubleshooting the issue but decided this time around to take advantage of the disposable nature of containers and delete the problematic container and rebuild it.

The problem went away.

Great.

Except there’s a part of me that really doesn’t like the fact that I didn’t learn anything from the situation.
