nextcloud: Fix install failure due to PrivateTmp=yes

Sunil Mohan Adapa requested to merge sunilmohan/freedombox:nextcloud-fix-privattmp-problem into main

Fixes: #2463 (closed).

  • When FreedomBox service is run via systemd and if the unit has PrivateTmp=yes as was recently introduced, then 'podman exec --user www-data' fails with error 'Error: unable to find user www-data: no matching entries in passwd file'.

  • The problem seems isolated to this specific instance and does not seem to effect the container start up (which happens via systemd).

Tests:

  • Without the patch, start FreedomBox service via systemd and install Nextcloud. It fails.

  • With the patch, install succeeds and functional tests for Nextcloud succeed.
