Changing user ID in docker-compose to match system fails to start bitcoind #94

Description

@mattdale77

I do not want to use the user ID 1000 as this does not match my system. Instead I would like to use 996. The permissions of the data directory match this and I update the docker-compose.yml to use the correct user ID in the user field.

However this fails with the following error

bitcoind | Error: filesystem error: cannot create directories: Permission denied [/.bitcoin/wallets]

Is this something that I might be doing wrong? Or is this a bug? Or is it a feature request to allow user IDs other than 1000? I'm not sure but I would like to be able to do this
