Bug #19796
Updated by Peter Amstutz about 2 years ago
It is expected for some time now that workflow developers base their container images from specific version tags of the @arvados/jobs@ image, nevertheless we still have the @latest@ tag in DockerHub and it's pointing to a really old image.
We should review the current documentation and make the appropriate updates to let users know that the @latest@ tag shouldn't be used and it's there for legacy support purposes.
Deprecation plan:
# Make sure the documentation does not tell users to use the arvados/jobs image, recommends people start from a standard image like debian-slim
# Alert any users that are using the legacy arvados/jobs:latest image they should stop doing that
# Should include a deprecation notice in 2.5 release notes that date N+3 months the image will be deleted
# when date N+3 months passes, delete the latest tag from docker hub (#19833)
