I am creating a devcontainer for my rust+postgres project. It worked well on wsl2. But when I cloned the project to a ubuntu system and tried to open it in devcontainer, it eventually failed, at the final steps.

here is the last few lines of output.

To find out what is happening, I opened another terminal within vscode inside the devcontainer and chekced the directory structure.

All files and folders in this project are now owned by a root user. My current user name as vscode. So, it looks like this is causing the permission error.

Is this a known issue, and/or is there a fix for this?

Thanks in advance.
