Using Ubuntu 16.04 with vagrant. I am following the steps from the document but getting error below:

*ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1:*

Appreciate your help on this.

I faced a similar issue when running on Mac. I resolved it by adding the required packages to the Dockefile. You can do this by adding the libxml2-dev & libxslt-dev as part of the RUN apk step in your Dockerfile and then rebuild the image.

The step to updated is https://github.com/blockchain-certificates/cert-issuer/blob/7d03e7fc130b47d865dd05f3f4a47353b3c54c30/Dockerfile#L7

Thanks for suggesting. This really worked.

Earlier, I was trying to manually install these dependencies but did not work. Updating Dockerfile helped overcome this issue.

Thanks,
