Static build of tfswitch unavailable?

[krish7919]

I have just installed the latest release of tfswitch on my CI container based on alpine 3.14 and the command wouldn't run.
While debugging, I discovered that tfswitch is a dynamically built binary instead of a statically built one.

Please find below a comparison of the outputs of the ldd command from within my container:

/opt/terraform-switcher-0.13.1201 # ldd /opt/terraform-0.11.14/terraform-0.11 
/lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1: /opt/terraform-0.11.14/terraform-0.11: Not a valid dynamic program
/opt/terraform-switcher-0.13.1201 # ldd tfswitch 
	/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x7f642eb4c000)
	libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x7f642eb4c000)
	libc.so.6 => /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x7f642eb4c000)
/opt/terraform-switcher-0.13.1201 # 

Can we provide static binaries in the releases page for downloads starting with the previous release please?

For others hitting the same issue, I have used the following snippet for now:

RUN TERRAFORM_SWITCHER_VERSION="0.13.1201" \
    && mkdir -p "/opt/terraform-switcher" \
    && cd "/opt/terraform-switcher" \
    && curl -sLO https://github.com/warrensbox/terraform-switcher/archive/refs/tags/${TERRAFORM_SWITCHER_VERSION}.tar.gz \
    && tar xzf 0.13.1201.tar.gz \
    && cd terraform-switcher-0.13.1201 \
    && CGO_ENABLED=0 GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64 GO111MODULE=on go build \
    && mv terraform-switcher ../tfswitch \
    && go clean -x -r -cache -modcache -testcache \
    && cd .. && rm -rf \
        terraform-switcher-0.13.1201 0.13.1201.tar.gz \
        /root/.cache \
        /tmp/* \
        /usr/share/doc \
        /usr/share/doc-base \
        /usr/share/man \
        /var/tmp/*

# Put terrafom-switcher into the environment
ENV PATH="/opt/terraform-switcher:${PATH}"

...
...
RUN ..
    && echo "---- Terraform 0.10.8" \
    && tfswitch 0.10.8 && terraform --version \
    && echo "---- Terraform 0.11.6" \
    && tfswitch 0.11.14 && terraform --version \
    && echo "---- Terraform 0.13.6" \
    && tfswitch 0.13.6 && terraform --version \
    && echo "---- Terraform 1.1.2" \
    && tfswitch 1.1.2 && terraform --version \

Bump, anyone?

@yermulnik did your pr #353 possibly fix this issue?

[yermulnik]

Hopefully (and most probably) yes. Though that feature hasn't yet been released (as the release automation is borked a bit — I notified @warrensbox about it, though not sure when he will be able to look into it again).

[MatrixCrawler]

@yermulnik our release pipeline is now working. Can we confirm that this issue is solved and can therefor be closed?

[yermulnik]

I guess, yes. Closing now.
