Here's another using multistage build. It creates a smaller runtime image:

FROM ubuntu:latest as build
run apt-get update
RUN apt-get install libbz2-1.0 libirrlicht1.8 libpng16-16 libjpeg8 libxxf86vm1 libgl1-mesa-glx libsqlite3-0 libogg0 libvorbis0a libopenal1 libcurl3-gnutls libfreetype6 zlib1g libgmp10 libjsoncpp1 -y
