Pants

Updated to 2.16.0, and tried out the experimental PyEnv backend. It works really well locally, but in CI it can’t find `tar` . There was one GitHub issue for the same, but they didn’t post their fix for it :thinking_face: We don’t have apt for this, rather use the Lambda official images. How would I go about resolving the tar not found issue?

<@U04SRQFFHKK> I believe this was you: <https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/19281>

Certainly was me. IIRC, I was using the AWS lambda image as a docker environment, and tar wasn't installed. Yum install tar fixed it.

I did have the same error yesterday in another set of circumstances, which I think was fixed by killing pantsd. I think that was a cache issue.

Thanks! Trying that out, we seem to have some custom image on top of the Lambda image, which doesn’t just let me yum install because that would be far too simple :sweat:
