snapcraft requested file bug report
Metadata
Current evaluation
Snapcraft 2.43.1 crashed with FileNotFoundError on the snapcraftctl function_call fifo after a keepalived compile failure on Xenial. No maintainer activity in ~7 years; the snapcraftctl code path no longer exists in the current codebase and the affected version is EOL.
Suggested action: close stale
Reason: The reported crash is in snapcraft/cli/snapcraftctl/_runner.py (snapcraft 2.43.1), a code path that no longer exists in the current codebase (layout shows snapcraft/commands and snapcraft/parts, no cli/snapcraftctl), and the affected version plus Xenial (16.04) are long past EOL. The primary failure was a third-party keepalived compile error, not a snapcraft bug, and the issue has had zero comments or labels in 2664 days.

Issue body
When trying to build the keepalived snap on Xenial, following a compile failure snapcraft produced the following:
