How to update repos when msys2 runtime must update?

[lazka]

Does it not work?

well Syu kills the runtime... then the docker shuts down... no?

I believe reporter is talking about Syu pacman & filesystem will quit msys2.

So far I found a few ways to handle it:

1. container itself doesn't destroy, so you can definitely Syu and restart the container and the system will be updated.
2. You start image with some persistent command in the outer debian layer and start msys2 manually.
3. Rebuild image.
