[Errno 17] File exists: 'libbsd.so.0.8.2' -> '/app/stage/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbsd.so.0'
Metadata
Current evaluation
Snapcraft 3.8 staging crash: FileExistsError linking libbsd.so.0 into stage after an I/O error on os.link, reported from a Docker build. No maintainer activity for ~7 years; the affected code paths no longer exist in modern snapcraft.
Suggested action: close stale
Reason: The issue is ~7 years old with zero comments or labels, and it targets snapcraft 3.8 whose code paths (snapcraft/file_utils.py, snapcraft/internal/pluginhandler) no longer exist in the current craft-parts-based codebase (no internal/ directory in the repo layout). The root cause appears to be an environment-specific I/O error on os.link in the reporter's Docker container, and the upstream go-flutter issue #287 indicates the problem was isolated on their side, so it is no longer applicable to current versions.
