Ask

Is there a way to install Lua libraries (specifically lua-cjson and lua-json) without building a custom container?
As a test we tried installing it on the container manually and via the command option, however the apk DB is locked:

ERROR: Unable to lock database: Permission denied
ERROR: Failed to open apk database: Permission denied

We currently need some custom paths in the artifactory.conf to handle certain requests (after moving from nexus).
However if this isn't an option we may just need to convert builds to use the correct path.
