Support a Snapcraft ROCK
Metadata
Current evaluation
Superseded by canonical/snapcraft-rocks, which publishes Snapcraft OCI images; PR #5063 (commit 24e70d6db) documented that registry and removed the outdated in-tree Dockerfile.
Resolution: closed superseded
Reason: OCI image builds were provided by canonical/snapcraft-rocks. Merged PR #5063, commit 24e70d6db, made that repository the documented official image source and removed the old Dockerfile.
