  3. distribution-spec

    OCI Distribution Specification

    For a server since OCI (https://opencontainers.org) there isn't a place/need for docker to be installed.

  4. socket-activate-httpd

    socket activated Apache httpd

    Apache HTTP Server https://github.com/eriksjolund/socket-activate-httpd

  5. pms-docker

    Plex Media Server Docker repo, for all your PMS docker needs.

    The issue seems to be more that the container I'm trying to run is trying to chown a directory and runs into "Operation not permitted" issues. Specifically, this script is being executed and is failing, no matter which combination of user/namespace commands I am feeding it.
