We're using the standard Oracle GraalVM image from the Oracle Container Registry in our Gitlab pipeline to compile our GraalVM applications.

container-registry.oracle.com/graalvm/native-image:23.0.1-muslib-ol9

The problem with this image is that there's no package manager present except RPM, which is very low level and difficult to work with. With RPM you have to manually hunt down and download the package you wish to install. Then you have to do the same with all the dependencies to the package, which in turn has their own dependencies and so forth. This makes it very hard to customize this image by extending it from our own Dockerfile and add packages needed in our pipeline.

Can you please add an easy to use package manager like e.g. YUM or DNF to this image? This would make it much easier to use the image and make a better developer experience.
