Missing `libssl.so.x.x` symlink in final docker image about lychee HOT 4 CLOSED

I cannot account for the difference in lychee executable size between this new image & the original (~292MB vs. 84MB)

Yes, I can. The executable isn't stripped in Dockerfile as it is in the GitHub Releases here. I have realised that the Dockerfile isn't used for the public image release.

The current lychee docker image (available via docker pull lycheeverse/lychee) weighs 107MB & uses rust:latest & debian:bullseye-slim. That rust:latest aliases to rust:bookworm (docker) which is Debian 12 (releases). However, debian:bullseye-slim is Debian 11 - I believe that's why there's different libssl.so.x.x files present.

I think the best solution is to, instead, ensure the two base images use the same Debian version. I tested the Dockerfile with both the same base images, separately, as rust:slim-bullseye & rust:slim-buster (despite being Debian 10) as you suggested. In short, rust images are b i g (~1GB).

I'd suggest using rust:bookworm & debian:bookworm-slim, which produces a 375MB image & appears to work as expected. I cannot account for the difference in lychee executable size between this new image & the original (~292MB vs. 84MB)

As far as I can see, this can be closed because of the excellent work by @MattTimms.
Thanks for looking into this and fixing it so cleanly and thoroughly. Props!

(The libssl issues should be resolved now; please reopen in case that's incorrect.)

Thanks.

From the options you presented, we'd ideally use the same image. Maybe we could change it to rust:slim-buster, which would ensure that the image stays small?
