Refactor MATLAB/Stata buildpacks

craig-willis opened this issue · comments

The MATLAB and Stata buildpacks both combine XPRA and JupyterLab in a single installation. This allows for fast toggling between environments (same image, different entrypoint), but is unnecessary and results in longer build times/larger images.

Consider refactoring the buildpacks to have XPRA + MATLAB/Stata or Jupyter + MATLAB/Stata.

At the same time, we should probably revisit use of the RBuildPack as a base for all images.
