Hello,

When I setup lsp-java in a Docker to verify setup steps, I get
intermittent errors as package.el tries to install a requirement from
elpa.gnu. If I experiment with different OSes, different emacs versions,
it is difficult to reproduce. With the description below, of a
Dockerfile and an init.el, the issue happens seems to happen more
frequently if I have iterated on restart a few times in a row.

The init.el is as follows.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq package-archives
      '(("gnu" . "https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/")
        ("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/")))

(package-initialize)

(unless package-archive-contents
  (package-refresh-contents))

(package-install 'lsp-java)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The contents of the Dockerfile are as follows.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
FROM silex/emacs

ADD .emacs.d /root/.emacs.d

CMD "emacs" "--debug-init"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The Dockerfile and the .emacs.d/init.el are in the same directory. Then,
in that directory, I call with the following.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
docker build . -t this:one && docker run --rm -it this:one
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I then get the following error, but neither 0% nor 100% of the time.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

I hope someone else can reproduce, and/or give advice on how I can
attempt to further isolate the issue.

Notes:

- It is not idempotent. If I restart emacs in the same image, it does
  not happen.
- If I install interactively, it does not happen.
- I tried briefly on macOS, and on Ubuntu in a VPS. It did not happen.
- If I use for example (mapc 'package-install '(spinner lsp-java)), it
  does not happen.

Thank you!
