-            <!--fabric8.io docker-maven-plugin does not support ARG usage in the FROM statement of Dockerfile
-             even though docker supports it: https://github.com/fabric8io/docker-maven-plugin/issues/859.
-             As a workaround we shall use maven-antrun-plugin to copy the Dockerfile and apply filters to
-             replace the parameterized base-image version. The fabric8.io docker-maven-plugin shall use this filtered file
-             to build the image. After the image is built we perform a cleanup to remove the filtered file.-->
