run.sh

docker build -t browser .
docker run -ti --rm -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix browser
docker run -ti --rm -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix browser google-chrome

Is there a way to make this work with later versions of ubuntu, say 16.04 or 18.04? Getting error stuck on line /sudoers.d/ directory doesn't exist?
