There is a warning not to use subprocess in pants plugins. What if I use a library that uses subprocess? 😉 Would you cringe at using

distro

in a plugin (in an

@_uncacheable_rule

)? https://pypi.org/project/distro/ https://github.com/nir0s/distro/blob/master/distro.py Looks like it runs these basic commands:

uname -rs

lsb_release -a

It also accesses a variety of files like

/etc/os-release

. Would I shoot myself in the foot by using this?
