limitation in identifying the resources installed by executing scripts #13

Description

@lluan444

The following is a segment of a sample Dockefile where it downloads a script that installs pip and removes the script afterwards. Without understanding the content of the script it is unknown what gets installed by the script execution. Also the script is removed after the execution and leaves no trace in the image.

Currently we are able to identify the script download, but not able to discover the resources installed by the script execution.
