NAME

              distrobox ephemeral
              distrobox-ephemeral


DESCRIPTION
       distrobox-ephemeral creates a temporary distrobox that is automatically
       destroyed when the command is terminated.

SYNOPSIS
       distrobox ephemeral


              --root/-r:      launch podman/docker/lilipod with root privileges. Note that if you need root this is the preferred
                          way over "sudo distrobox" (note: if using a program other than 'sudo' for root privileges is necessary,
                          specify it through the DBX_SUDO_PROGRAM env variable, or 'distrobox_sudo_program' config variable)
              --verbose/-v:       show more verbosity
              --help/-h:      show this message
              --/-e:          end arguments execute the rest as command to execute at login   default: default ${USER}'s shell
              --version/-V:       show version


EXAMPLES

              distrobox-ephemeral --image alpine:latest -- cat /etc/os-release
              distrobox-ephemeral --root --verbose --image alpine:latest --volume /opt:/opt
