Dockerfile issue with --install-option=\"--prefix=/install\"

[aous72]

In using Dockerfile, when I issue Docker build . --file ./Dockerfile -t jpylyzer

I get

 => ERROR [builder 5/5] RUN mkdir /install && cd /src/jpylyzer && pip install -U pip && pip install --install-opt  4.2s

ERROR: failed to solve: process "/bin/sh -c mkdir /install && cd /src/jpylyzer && pip install -U pip && pip install --install-option=\"--prefix=/install\" ." did not complete successfully: exit code: 1

I fixed this by modifying the Dockerfile line RUN mkdir /install && cd /src/jpylyzer && pip install -U pip && pip install --install-option="--prefix=/install" . to RUN mkdir /install && cd /src/jpylyzer && pip install -U pip && pip install --prefix=/install .

I am actually not familiar with this. Perhaps you have a better solution.

Hope this is useful. Thank you. Aous.

@aous72 thanks for reporting this! Tbh I'm not even completely sure why this particular Docker file is even included. All dockerization stuff was created by @carlwilson to make the packaging platform-independent, but from what I can see this Docker file isn't even used in any of the package builds. I'll try to have another look after my holidays.
