docker make fails on OSX 10.10.5

[danielsf]

I am trying to run docker/make on my Mac laptop running Yosemity (OSX 10.10.5). The Dockerfile fails on step 10

RUN groupadd -g $GROUP_ID $GROUP_NAME

This is because my user is a part of the group "staff" with group_id=20. Unfortunately, group_id=20 corresponds to the "games" group that comes with the Linux docker container, so running group add results in a "GID not unique" error.

After I hack the Dockerfile to use an unassigned group_id, it fails on step 11 with

Step 11 : RUN useradd -d $HOME -g $GROUP_NAME -u $USER_ID $USER_NAME
 ---> Running in 002cbfc08e4b
useradd: cannot create directory /Users/danielsf
The command '/bin/sh -c useradd -d $HOME -g $GROUP_NAME -u $USER_ID $USER_NAME' returned a non-zero code: 12
make: *** [image] Error 12

/Users/danielsf is my home directory on my laptop.

I was able to fix the "cannot make the directory" error by adding

RUN     mkdir -p $HOME

before step 11.

Even after getting docker/make to run, actually building an LSST product fails with traceback

This happens on both OSX and Linux
