Hello! I'd love to help but I don't understand what the issue is. For
information Emacs does not build in docker out of the box because it needs
to disable ASLR (see https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/22801).

Tell me what you need or what precise problem you are encountering and
maybe I can clarify what needs to be done.

Kind regards,
Philippe
