It makes container images non-reproductible. Each build could end up
with different package versions. It breaks collaboration with others.
On the other hand, if you are building containers on the same machine,
apt-get invocation will be cached and not repeated. So if you build
container again after few months and expect to have fresh upgrades
applied, it won't work.
