What this PR does / why we need it:
Original workaround #11821
During VM image build, a number of packages are downloaded but not
installed, since they may interfere with some testing. Then at runtime,
where required, the packages are installed from cache and used.
However, between image build and runtime it's possible the repository
contents change, which will invalidate the package cache. Since the
--no-download --ignore-missingoptions were used, the install willfail.
Fortunately, when it comes to the docker packages, no other dependencies
are required and so
apt-getisn't required. Switch to using a simpledpkg install command on the necessary files. If this ever breaks due
to new dependencies, the list of files may simply be updated.
How to verify it
