seems like there is no easy way to add pdlib: https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one#what-about-the-pdlib-php-extension-for-the-facerecognition-app

Is it possible to install it on my yunohost server without breaking everything ? 😅

The method with the docker should be quite safe for your system.

But you need to understand docker things...

I close this ticket cause it's completely an upstream issue for me (due to dependencies choices).
