I need to install within the crops/poky container some packages (see in the linked document Chapter 3.1 Host packages) since I have no password - how to do it?

(base) PS C:\> docker run --rm -it -v myvolume:/workdir crops/poky --workdir=/workdir
pokyuser@06932ce45056:/workdir$ apt-get install curl
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), are you root?

Hi @peter197321,

I believe #19 answers your question. The summary being either:

  1. Build the image yourself and install the packages. The special bit for doing this would be https://github.com/crops/poky-container/issues/19#issuecomment-343601187.
  2. Use docker exec as mentioned in https://github.com/crops/poky-container/issues/19#issuecomment-343571950. You could also drop to a shell using docker exec by instead doing docker exec -it -u root <image hash> bash

Hello,

per @rewitt1 it should be "Build" yourself, it means crops/poky are useless? So the intention is to reuse as much as possible from crops/poky.

Where and which parts should I modify to add my needed packages?

Thanks for your comments.

Closing this as we will not fix this. If you need a custom container image, please look into using crops-generator. See the video. Take control of your own Open Source Adventure. Build your own container.
