I tried to run [GitHub - codeclimate/codeclimate: Code Climate CLI](https://github.com/codeclimate/codeclimate) inside circle ci container, but received error.

If I receive `rm` flag I don’t receive error regarding btrfs, but looks like the root of the problem is user creation [https://github.com/codeclimate-community/brakeman/blob/master/Dockerfile#L12](https://github.com/codeclimate-community/brakeman/blob/master/Dockerfile#L12).

Could you please suggest anything?

The problems are these two lines:

> <https://github.com/codeclimate/codeclimate/blob/master/lib/cc/analyzer/engine.rb#L56>

and #61

I removed both and built a custom docker image ([https://hub.docker.com/r/etops/codeclimate/](https://hub.docker.com/r/etops/codeclimate/)) which works.
