Failing to install nodered-contrib-face-recognition

General
1

Hello

We are failling to install the node node-red-contrib-face-recognition in a Fargate container running nodered/node-red:3.0.2-16.
It fails even in a clean, created-from scratch, container so no existing dependencies from other nodes.
The error log is as follow.
Could someone help us to uderstand what it means ?

Many thanks

I think that means that it cannot find pixman. Did you see the note about additional stuff that needs to be included for the docker image? node-red-contrib-face-recognition (node) - Node-RED

3

Ah...
Indeed I didn't catch all that
Thanks @Colin

So if I run the official docker image in my local Ubuntu, log-in as root and run the additional apk add ... command specified in "Official Docker Image" I can successfully install the face-recognition node. :+1:

Now I forked the repo for the official docker image and added that command in the Dockerfile.custom at the end of the "STAGE BUILD" section like below.
Build run without any error but unfortunately, the same problem occurs startig with pkg-config not found
If I log into the container and run the apt add command there, everything works fine.
So it looks like the location of my command is not correct
Is there a better place to insert that apk add command ?

Thanks

Modified Dockerfile.custom (without package python as it is already installed in the "Install Build tools" step:
