When manually writing lockfile overrides (see previous commit), it's sometimes easier to not have to specify the SHA256 of the package. For example, in FCOS, all packages on development and production streams will be sourced uniquely from coreos-pool, so there's no question of where the package will come from. It's of course also easier in the context of local development. Another motivation for this though is a subtle interaction between Fedora infra and the way we'd like to implement lockfile management: we want the override process to be PR-based, with a privileged bot in the backend tagging new overrides into the pool as necessary on merge. However, packages built in Koji are initially unsigned, and so we can't actually *know* what the SHA256 of the package will be until it's signed and tagged into the pool by the bot.

rpm-ostree: A true hybrid image/package system
rpm-ostree combines libostree (an image system), with libdnf (a package system), bringing many of the benefits of both together.
+-----------------------------------------+

| C API, hardlink fs trees, system repo, | | ties together libsolv (SAT solver) |

Features:
- Transactional, background image-based (versioned/checksummed) upgrades
- OS rollback without affecting user data (
/usr
but not/etc
,/var
) via libostree - Client-side package layering (and overrides)
- Easily make your own:

Projects using rpm-ostree
Project Atomic is an umbrella project for delivering upstream container technologies and combined with a minimized, atomically upgradable host system to Fedora, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and CentOS.
rpm-ostree is the underlying technology for host updates. The headlining project is "Atomic Host", which is a server variant oriented towards running Linux containers using e.g. Kubernetes. However, there is now also a Workstation variant, showing the full generality of the rpm-ostree model.

Talks and media
A number of Project Atomic talks are available; see for example this post which has a bigger collection that also includes talks on containers.
