I changed Dockerfile to this:

FROM selenium/standalone-chrome-debug:latest
USER root
RUN sudo apt-get update

and it worked.

If this is correct answer, please close.

Hi @bartonhammond,

Yes, some packages are installed with root and only a few with seluser, so for your use case probably you need the root user.
