Steps To Reproduce

  1. Install per the instructions as written at https://bitwarden.com/help/install-and-deploy-unified-beta/ that has a restrictive policy like SELinux

The container should run as a non-root user

Actual Result

The container cannot run in a restrictive environment where root users are not permitted or are highly restricted like in SELinux environments or Kubernetes platforms that enforce a restrictive policy like VMware Tanzu or OpenShift.
