 8. giftwrap will check [devstack](https://devstack.org) for the system dependencies necessary for that project (to be done)

+------------------------------
+
+This shows how to use docker-in-docker to build packages really fast.  the example shows doing it within the provided vagrant instance.  but this is for illustration purposes,  it should be runnable from any machine with docker installed.
+
+
+Build a giftwrap docker container like this:
+
+```
+$ docker build -t bluebox/giftwrap .
+```
+
+Run the giftwrap docker image and map in your docker socket and your manifest file:
+
+```
+$ docker run --rm -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v /vagrant/sample.yml:/tmp/manifest.yml  bluebox/giftwrap
+$ docker images openstack-9.0
