Installing ni-controllerdriver: 50%
Error -125083: An error occurred while installing a package: ni-controllerdriver (23.0.0.49336-0+f184)

Additional error information:
Error -125530: An error occurred while installing the MSI at 'controllerDriver64.msi'.

When I dig deeper into msi logs it displays:

MSI (s) (00:8C) [13:40:37:782]: Note: 1: 1708 
MSI (s) (00:8C) [13:40:37:782]: Product: NI Controller Driver 23.0 64-bit -- Installation failed.

Attached full log from instalation.

Is there a way to continiue instalation despite this error or fix it?

NI software that depends on NI drivers will fail to install under Docker because Docker does not support installing drivers.

Technically you could create and install a custom package that uses the Provides attribute that contains the list of packages that you want to prevent from being installed, so you could list the ni-controllerdriver package. How any software that requires those drivers be installed will vary and will minimally error and could crash the software.
