Nothing here is an error that prevents dnsdist from starting. It might
be that your container closes stdin by default, which kills dnsdist if
it is not started with the --supervised flag.

Is there a reason you're not using the images we build[1]?

Dockerfiles and our startup script are in our repo[2,3].

Cheers,

Pieter
