   Thanks for taking a look, @kun-lu20.
   
    * It's strange that `mozjs78-devel` appeared in CentOS 9 stream. RHEL9 base, for all I know, doesn't provide it. I bet it comes from the EPEL repo. We use that for some build tools, so it might be brought in that way. That could still work, though. We would just have to update our documentation letting users know that RHEL 9 clones EPEL repo would be a dependency. In some situation I suspect that might not be a viable situation as EPEL may not be an approved additional repo for many enterprise customers.
   
    * Unfortunately CentOS Stream 9 would not work for us. Apache CouchDB users would probably want an RHEL-exact clone which, I believe, CentOS 9 isn't any. Since we already use Rocky Linux 8, would it be possible to use Rocky Linux 9? (The docker hub path still has `centos` in the name, that's just to avoid having yet another docker path separate for 7 and 8 RHEL clones, in the future we might switch that to `rpmos` or `rocky` or something like that).
   
     * We haven't thought too hard about Rocky vs AlmaLinux. Either could work, so if some reason Rocky doesn't work or doesn't support some feature we need could try using AlmaLinux.
