> "It remains virtually impossible to create a Ruby or Python web server virtual machine image that DOESN’T include build tools (gcc), ssh, and multiple latent shell executables."
At work, our tech team has found an interesting way around this for our Python app. We build out the virtualenv in the docker container, and then run our ansible-based deployments inside the same container. With that, our virtual environments are rsync'd to the app servers so we can avoid installing developer tools.
