# APT is terrible like pip and don't know how to handle parallel installation
# These should periodically be moved onto the base image
apt update && apt install -y --no-install-recommends dhcpcd5 iptables iproute2 isc-dhcp-client nmap systemd
+apt clean && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

**suggestion (bug_risk):** Chain cleanup to the install command so it only runs on success and keeps failure context intact.
As written, cleanup runs even if `apt install` fails (unless `set -e` is in effect), which can hide the failure context and still mutate the system after an error. Please chain these commands, e.g. `apt update && apt install ... && apt clean && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*`, so cleanup only occurs on successful install.
