Updates the image to run as a non-root user (
id=10000, name=main
), with permission to install additional packages usingsudo apt-get
(configured in/etc/sudoers
). All tools that would usually be installed into the user's home directory (/home/main
) are installed into/opt
instead (that is Pipx installed tools, Rustup and Cargo home).Using this image in GitLab CI
From what I can tell so far it seems GitLab CI always checks out the repository as root, but uses broad permissions (
rw-rw-rw
and vice versa) on the$CI_PROJECT_DIR
. In order to avoid Git complaining withfatal: detected dubious ownership in repository
, we need to runat the beginning of the CI job (we can do this in pre_build_script).
The "Clear runner caches" button needs to be pressed to remove the cached
build/
directory which is also owned byroot
from previous runs but does not have broader permissions.
