This sounds good! I am glad for a Debian-container option. And if there 
are not dependencies to chase down and install, so much the better. I 
get frustrated after about three levels of that, when a dependency's 
dependency also has a dependency.

Now I'm wondering... is there any chance this container could run under 
Microsoft's Subsystem For Linux?

I'm planning to check this out, unless someone else already knows it 
doesn't work.
