twice, once for "apt update" and once for "apt install". apt is meant
for interactive use. Call apt-get instead, like ci/install-dependencies.sh
already does.

When replacing `dirname`, elevation is required, otherwise the command will fail with: + ln -sfT /usr/bin/gnudirname /usr/bin/dirname ln: failed to create symbolic link '/usr/bin/dirname': Already exists as observed in https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/actions/runs/40223871341/job/121274294974?pr=6473#step:3:909 Based-on-patch-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Harald Nordgren <haraldnordgren@gmail.com>
The linux32 job fails DNS resolution before checkout because Docker 29.4.2's seccomp profile on Ubuntu 26.04 blocks socketcall in i386 glibc containers. Ubuntu 24.04 avoids this host-side regression. actions/runner-images#14790 Based-on-patch-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Harald Nordgren <haraldnordgren@gmail.com>

I see this breakage. Haven't they corrected the Rust rewrite of
dirname by now, by the way, to make this overwrite unnecessary yet?

Sigh, but this one is rather straightforward. We need to be aware
of this change so that we can revert it when it becomes unnecessary.

I can see this well, but it is a warning only, so I do not know how
much value in addressing it would be.

Will queue. Thanks.

There was a status update in the "New Topics" section about the branch The GitHub Actions CI jobs have been updated to fix breakages caused by the move to Ubuntu 26.04 runner images, including using 'apt-get' instead of 'apt' for stable CLI output, elevating permissions when replacing system binaries, and temporarily pinning the 'linux32' job to Ubuntu 24.04 to avoid seccomp-related networking failures. Will merge to 'next'? cf. <xmqqse1h4lmw.fsf@gitster.g> source: <pull.2478.git.git.1793530936.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> |
