Unpin apt/apk package versions to fix periodic build failures (#188)#189
Merged
Conversation
Ubuntu/Alpine archives keep only the latest build of each package, so exact pins like curl=8.5.0-2ubuntu10.9 get rotated out on each security update and break the build. The `apt-get upgrade`/`apk upgrade` steps already pull latest-patched versions, so the pins provided no reproducibility or supply-chain benefit (signed repo metadata is the real control) -- they only caused the failures. Removing them also eliminates the misleading buried "Version not found" error. Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
