Hi, my company uses Pants in the CI/CD pipeline and it is installed in a docker image with

FROM amazonlinux:2
...other steps
RUN curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -fsSL <https://static.pantsbuild.org/setup/get-pants.sh> | bash
ENV PATH="${PATH}:/root/.local/bin"

Until recently, Pants has been working well, but after rebuilding the docker image yesterday, Pants is now giving an error when being run:

Failed to determine release URL for Pants: 2.17.0: pants.2.17.0-cp39-linux_x86_64.pex: URL check failed: <https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/releases/download/release_2.17.0/pants.2.17.0-cp39-linux_x86_64.pex>: <urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1129)>

If this is unexpected (you are using a known good Pants version), try upgrading scie-pants first.
It may also be that the platform linux_x86_64 isn't supported for this version of Pants, or some other intermittent network/service issue.

Isolates your Pants from the elements.

Please select from the following boot commands:

<default> (when SCIE_BOOT is not set in the environment)  Detects the current Pants installation and launches it.
bootstrap-tools                                           Introspection tools for the Pants bootstrap process.
update                                                    Update scie-pants.

You can select a boot command by setting the SCIE_BOOT environment variable.

Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

• Does this occur with the latest stable version of Pants (2.23) • Does your docker image pin a specific version of scie-pants? If so, which one?
