fork/exec error when building Go rock with the 24.04 build-base
Metadata
Current evaluation
Bare Go rocks on ubuntu@24.04 need base-files_lib for the usrmerged ELF-loader paths. The reporter confirmed that adding the slice fixes the fork/exec failure.
Suggested action: close not a bug
Reason: The reporter confirmed that adding base-files_lib resolves the failure, and the maintainer explained that Ubuntu 24.10 removed a dependency Chisel had effectively supplied while Chisel intentionally makes no package assumptions. Because a bare rock requires explicit runtime packages, this is an incomplete package list rather than a Go-plugin execution bug; automatically adding defaults would be a separate, risky feature.

The later usrmerge documentation explains Ubuntu 24.04's base-files and symlink behavior, though it does not directly add the missing slice.
