Permission denied (os error 13): mkdir '/home/sa/.local/share/pkgx/pantry'

[FlatMapIO]

When I use pkgx in docker, I use the -v to share the host and the contents of the container to avoid duplicate downloads. This caused some problems when starting the pkgx container, and I think it's necessary for useSync to check if the directory exists when creating it.

docker run \
-v ~/.pkgx:/home/sa/.pkgx \
-v ~/.local:/home/sa/.local \
...

We create the directory first:

const unflock = await flock(pantry_dir.mkdir('p'))

This is presumably some other docker related issue. We can help you trace it, no suggestions off the top of my head tho. @jhheider ?

I know the default filesystem driver on docker desktop for Mac causes frequent permission issues. Not looking at them ATM, but the middle one works fine.

@jhheider I'm using docker and pkgx in ubuntu. In containers pkgx seems to try to create ~/.local/state/pkgx, which is a -v path that already exists.
