Host Command Execution

6       distrobox-host-exec  lets one execute command on the host, while inside
7       of a container.
8
9       If “flatpak-spawn” is installed in the container, this is what is used,
10       and  it  is  the  most  powerful  and recommended method.  If, instead,
11       “flatpak-spawn” can’t be found, it still try to get the job  done  with
12       “chroot”  (but  beware that not all commands/programs will work well in
13       this mode).
14
15       Just pass to “distrobox-host-exec” any command and all  its  arguments,
16       if any.

18              distrobox-host-exec [command [arguments]]
19
20       If no command is provided, it will execute “/bin/sh”.

22       Example usage:
23
24              distrobox-host-exec ls
25              distrobox-host-exec bash -l
26              distrobox-host-exec flatpak run org.mozilla.firefox
27              distrobox-host-exec podman ps -a
