bootstrap failed on Artix Linux: ERROR: Circular dependency detected

[wang-songbo]

Hi. I fetched the git HEAD (commit f9d73e5e9) and tried bootstrapping on my Artix Linux box:

# uname -a
Linux hostname 6.3.6-artix1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon, 05 Jun 2023 19:57:22 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

and it failed with the following messages:

Also, running with the option --cwrappers no did not help and produced the message

[jsonn]

Do you have hostname available?

Hi @jsonn ! Thanks for your reply. No indeed I did not have the hostname utility installed, and installing the inetutils which provides a hostname did resolve the problem. Thanks for your suggestion!
