Hey Maria,

I am currently trying to give it a shot of creating a Dockerfile, but
building bird from git using

         autoconf && ./configure

fails with

checking for rl_ding in -lreadline... yes
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: error: cannot find input file: `sysdep/autoconf.h.in'

I have that error both on master and v3.0-alpha2, my build environment
is Alpine Linux.

If you can hint me on how to fix this, I might be able to provide a
Dockerfile for provding docker images for bird.

Best regards,

Nico

 Hello!

 No, we don't publish Docker images. We'll consider it, yet I can't promise any timeline now. We are used to different methods of
 virtualization and Docker has been under our radar.

 Best Regards,
 Maria

  Hello Ondrej,

 do you by any chance publish docker images? We run a lot of routers
 inside k8s and I could give bird 3.0 a try in some network partitions
 easily if we had something we can use as a container.

 Best regards,

 Nico

  Dear BIRD Users,
  we are releasing another alpha version of BIRD 3. We've found some
  annoying bugs and fixed some usability issues as well as several
  issues with BIRD crashing. We also added a simple work balancing
  algorithm between threads. MRT is still switched off, BMP is not
  merged; they will get into some future alpha version.

  Measured performance in BGP is approx. 6-10x better (with 20 threads)
  than version 2.13, depending on the actual configuration. Kernel
  synchronization is slow with a large number of routes; we will look
  into it soon.

  If you have some time for trying this version out, we would love to
  hear your feedback.

  I thank my colleagues and namely Maria for this release!

  Cheers
      Ondrej
