Setting up codespaces with private Devops Artifacts repo

Comienza con la configuración de devcontainer feature y la salida de Azure Artifacts Credential Provider mostrada en la issue. Investiga la dependencia libsecret que falta y el flujo de autenticación; se considera terminado cuando dotnet restore pueda recuperar paquetes del feed privado de Azure DevOps sin errores de persistencia ni de credenciales.

I'm unsuccessfully trying to setup my codespaces to use a private artifacts repo hosted on Azure Devops.

• The base image for the devcontainer used is mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/dotnet:1-8.0
• I've added the ghcr.io/microsoft/codespace-features/artifacts-helper:latest to the features list of the devcontainer.

Assuming my understanding is correct this should install the Azure Devops Codespaces Authentication extension and the Azure Artifacts Credential Provider nuget credentials plugin which should enable us to fetch the nuget packages.

This is installed as expected and the ~/azure-auth-helper get-access-token will returns a token as expected, the dotnet restore still fails with

warning : [CredentialProvider]Warning: Cannot persist Microsoft authentication token cache securely!

Verbose output will show

In addition to this it will also complain about this

I can't figure what is missing to get this working, any help would be appreciated.
