*Container Build Improvement* Apptainer 1.1.0 is further enhanced by allowing users greater flexibility to set up containers without using root. The new version extends the --fakeroot option to make it useful when /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid mappings have not been configured on the host. When this is the case, a root-mapped unprivileged user namespace (the equivalent of unshare -r) and/or the fakeroot command from the host will be tried. Together, these emulate the same mappings and are simpler to administer. This feature is especially useful with the --overlay and --writable-tmpfs options and for building containers unprivileged, because they allow installing packages that assume they're running as root.

Key Points:

Improvements in the new version provide a smaller attack surface for production deployments while offering features that improve and simplify the user experience.
Apptainer continues the legacy of Singularity with backwards compatibility, stability, added security, performance and reproducibility.
Improvements shipping as part of this new feature include:
A squashfuse image driver that enables mounting SIF files without using setuid-root.
Complete release notes can be found at the Apptainer GitHub repository:
Apptainer is the Linux Foundation successor to the popular Singularity container runtime.
