I was recently trying to debug a cycle reported by wolfictl in https://github.com/wolfi-dev/os/pull/28993. There is an internal slack discussion here. I was using melange at b4ef7f5a92234ad93d87ddcabac45d1b98753aa3.

I made a seemingly unrelated change here that resulted in wolfictl text failing with message like:

$ burl=https://packages.wolfi.dev/bootstrap/stage3
$ wolfictl text --pipeline-dir=./pipelines \
    -r$burl -k$burl/wolfi-signing.rsa.pub   2>&1 |

The output made me suspect that somehow git-bootstrap was not being considered. I'm fairly certain that assessment was wrong.

I'm not sure what was the actual problem, but it was fixed with this change (removing uses-strip from py3-pluggy). I got to that change just by dropping dependencies in packages and then re-running and repeating that cycle.

Some better output would probably help debug this. I'm not sure what said output would look like.

I wonder if lack of pigments provides did it.

And priority zero was not considered.
