steamcmd-container

Extended version of CM2Walki/steamcmd based on Fedora.

This provides a relatively current userspace for steamcmd and game servers to use. Some utilities have been left in for convenience (ie: wget, less, find).

Size is not a priority for this image/project. Currency (time, not money) and convenience are the priorities.

Tweaks

The steamcmd libraries are made available using ld.so.conf.d. This should be preferable to the usual solution: juggling copies/symlinks.

Below are the adjustments made to the package manager dnf.

• max_parallel_downloads: Raised to the limit of 20. Leverages faster networks / more connections.
• fastestmirror: Disabled. Contrary to what the name implies, this usually slows things down. Measures latency -- not bandwidth.
• deltarpm: Disabled. No old packages will exist to diff. Spare the consideration.
