how to keep shell environment included with slim

[wang2024666]

Expected Behavior

keep shell env after slim build

---

Actual Behavior

we run with shell include as:
docker-slim --report /root/slim.report.json build
--http-probe=false
--continue-after=1
--include-shell=true
--include-oslibs-net=true
--include-ssh-client=true

the contiainer seems still missing the shell environment.
[root@localhost ~]# docker exec -it caf51e6fff9d /bin/bash
OCI runtime exec failed: exec failed: unable to start container process: exec: "/bin/bash": stat /bin/bash: no such file or directory: unknown
[root@localhost ~]# docker exec -it caf51e6fff9d /bin/sh
OCI runtime exec failed: exec failed: unable to start container process: exec: "/bin/sh": stat /bin/sh: no such file or directory: unknown
[root@localhost ~]# docker exec -it caf51e6fff9d sh
OCI runtime exec failed: exec failed: unable to start container process: exec: "sh": executable file not found in $PATH: unknown
how can we keep the shell environment and basic os commands? the base image is CentOS Stream 8

Specifications

• Version: 1.40.11
• Platform: centos stream 8

@wang2024666 thank you for the report! This looks a bit strange... Definitely need to investigate it more. In the meantime, try using the --include-bin and/or --include-exe flags. Also try using the latest release

@kcq we tried the latest release with:
mint slim
--http-probe=false
--continue-after=1
--include-bin=/bin/bash \ (must with this flag, we can get the bash)
--include-shell=true
--include-oslibs-net=true
--include-ssh-client=true
ndsmodeler:20240914
then run the image, the bash is included,
docker exec -it f5e0cf56476a /bin/bash
bash-5.1# ls
bash: ls: command not found
bash-5.1# cd /app
bash-5.1# ls
bash: ls: command not found
bash-5.1# dir
bash: dir: command not found
bash-5.1# ll
bash: ll: command not found
bash-5.1# pwd
/app
bash-5.1# ls
bash: ls: command not found
bash-5.1# ping
bash: ping: command not found
bash-5.1# cat
bash: cat: command not found
but other basic commands like ls, cat, ping not in the image now. should we keek all the bin files one by one or other flags can be used?
