Subject: Docker image sizes

Message-ID: <87sg0dzfza.fsf@sheer.tj> (raw)
Hi,
I was trying to package a project in docker and to start I did a fairly
straightforward command:
$ guix pack --format=docker elixir
It generated an image quite a bit larger than I expected.
-r--r--r-- 2 root root 461M Dec 31 1969 gfnqg760z22vr8kbvyzdzhs1hc5766c9-elixir-docker-pack.tar.gz
After uncompressing, this is taking 1.5GB and is including quite a few
unnecessary packages for a minimal image - see below for the top 30.

I wouldn't expect to need llvm, mesa, webkit, samba, python, perl, gtk, cups, pulseaudio, etc, etc. in a production image.
What would be the recommended way to minimize the derivation?
Thanks,
TJ
