# 1. Install temp packages needed for build
# 2. Install meteor for user meteor (with launcher creation)
# 3. Assert node version bundled is what we think it should be
# 4. Relink node/npm/npx to the versions already on the image - built for Alpine
# 5. Make npm modules work on Alpine (netroute has an odd bug that we have to hack around)
# 6. Make meteor available to root user (beyond meteor user)
# 7. Remove temp packages
