glibc issues and root access #1

Hi, is this repo still maintained?

I think it is extremely useful, and I was able to adapt it for my Quartus 21.1 installation. However, I am having issues related to glibc and I can't solve them without playing around with yum, which I can't do since I don't have root access.

What is the safest/easiest way to be able to run things as root within the container?

you should be able to access root using docker exec -u 0 74f86665f0fd whoami

-u allows you to change user
