Hey everyone,
I am attempting to update the CircleCI config for the open source project Kazoo (https://github.com/2600hz/kazoo/) and running into an issue. Right now the project is using the autogenerated 2.0 config file which includes using the image circleci/build-image:ubuntu-14.04-XXL-upstart-1189-5614f37.
Kazoo is an erlang project and right now it uses an application called kerl to manage which version of erlang is installed. I had hopped to update this to use the erlang image and a specific versions tag. However when I do that I run into a permissions issue that seems to be related to userns.
Here is the error I am getting:

This is happening during the make process when erlang is downloading and extracting a tar file for the ranch_proxy_protocol dependency. As far as I can tell this issue is similar to this: https://github.com/circleci/circleci-docs/blob/master/jekyll/_cci2/high-uid-error.md
Whats odd is this issue doesn’t come up when using the circleci docker image, circleci/build-image:ubuntu-14.04-XXL-upstart-1189-5614f37. No matter what other image I try and use though I run into this permissions issue.
Since I obviously don’t have control over all of the dependencies and getting control of them is not really feasible, I was wondering what it is about that ubuntu image that makes it work. I don’t mind making a custom image, but I just need to know whats going on so I can replicate it.
Has anyone else run into something similar? Any suggestions?
There are a lot of benefits we get if we can move away from that ubuntu image, so any and all help is greatly appreciated.
