I figured out how to become root on the Dataverse container:

docker exec -it -u 0 dataverse-1 bash

This what I'll do the next time I want to install awscli or vim or whatever. :grinning:

I'm sort of wondering if we should document this. I started by googling for the root password for eclipse-temurin image (which I never did find). This trick works well.

I needed this again today. Maybe we should document it.
