Ryan Gonzalez ddf415a359 docker: Fix usage with rootless podman and SELinux
When using rootless podman, the *current user* gets mapped to uid 0,
which results in the aptly user being unable to write to the build
directory. We can instead map the current user to the corresponding uid
in the container via `PODMAN_USERNS=keep-id`, which matches up with what
docker-wrapper wants...but then that will *enter the container as the
current uid*, which messes with the ability to set permissions on
`/var/lib/aptly`. That can be fixed by explicitly passing `--user 0:0`,
which should be a no-op on docker (since the container's default user is
already root).

Additionally, this adds `--security-opt label=disable` to avoid
permission errors when running on systems with SELinux enforcing.

Aptly is a swiss army knife for Debian repository management.

Documentation is available at `http://www.aptly.info/ <http://www.aptly.info/>`_. For support please use
open `issues <https://github.com/aptly-dev/aptly/issues>`_ or `discussions <https://github.com/aptly-dev/aptly/discussions>`_.

Aptly features:

* make mirrors of remote Debian/Ubuntu repositories, limiting by components/architectures
* take snapshots of mirrors at any point in time, fixing state of repository at some moment of time
* publish snapshot as Debian repository, ready to be consumed by apt
* controlled update of one or more packages in snapshot from upstream mirror, tracking dependencies
* merge two or more snapshots into one
* filter repository by search query, pulling dependencies when required
* publish self-made packages as Debian repositories
* REST API for remote access

Any contributions are welcome! Please see `CONTRIBUTING.md <CONTRIBUTING.md>`_.

Installation
=============

Aptly can be installed on several operating systems.

Debian / Ubuntu
----------------

Aptly is provided in the following debian packages:

* **aptly**: Includes the main Aptly binary, man pages, and shell completions
* **aptly-api**: A systemd service for the REST API, using the global /etc/aptly.conf
* **aptly-dbg**: Debug symbols for troubleshooting

The packages can be installed on official `Debian <https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=aptly>`_ and `Ubuntu <https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=aptly>`_ distributions.

Upstream Debian Packages
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If a newer version (not available in Debian/Ubuntu) of aptly is required, upstream debian packages (built from git tags) can be installed as follows:

Install the following APT key (as root)::

    wget -O /etc/apt/keyrings/aptly.asc https://www.aptly.info/pubkey.txt

Define Release APT sources in ``/etc/apt/sources.list.d/aptly.list``::

    deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/aptly.asc] http://repo.aptly.info/release DIST main

Where DIST is one of: ``bullseye``, ``bookworm``, ``trixie``, ``focal``, ``jammy``, ``noble``

Install aptly packages::

    apt-get update
    apt-get install aptly
    apt-get install aptly-api  # REST API systemd service

CI Builds
~~~~~~~~~~

For testing new features or bugfixes, recent builds are available as CI builds (built from master, may be unstable!) and can be installed as follows:

Define CI APT sources in ``/etc/apt/sources.list.d/aptly-ci.list``::

    deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/aptly.asc] http://repo.aptly.info/ci DIST main

Where DIST is one of: ``bullseye``, ``bookworm``, ``trixie``, ``focal``, ``jammy``, ``noble``

Note: same gpg key is used as for the Upstream Debian Packages.

Other Operating Systems
------------------------

Binary executables (depends almost only on libc) are available on `GitHub Releases <https://github.com/aptly-dev/aptly/releases>`_ for:

- macOS / darwin (amd64, arm64)
- FreeBSD (amd64, arm64, 386, arm)
- Generic Linux (amd64, arm64, 386, arm)
