Meh, after a server upgrade and reboot a bunch of my Python scripts don't work anymore. I know of at least two.
Finally, everything seems to be fixed now.
@lyse Oh man that sucks 🤦♂️ But glad you got it sorted a few hours later by the looks 😆
One of the reasons I like Go so much 🤣 Portability guarantees 🥳

@prologic Yeah, but it only works for truly statically linked executables. Two weeks ago I had the problem that I build a simple service with the regular go build -o myservice and copied it to my server. It didn't start though, the libc versions didn't line up. So then I had to search around and use go build -o myservice -tags netgo -ldflags '-extldflags "-static"'. (Generally even more flags are required.) And the best part is that the exact command line differs with each Go version. I hope they finally provide a simple -static flag.
@lyse Isn't it generally enough to just set CGO_ENABLED=0 before you run go build? I haven't tried lately, but I _think_ they have improved this somewhat over the years... Need to test this 🤔

@prologic Hmm, I don't use cgo in said project, so I would be surprised if that then has an effect. I will try that next time, though.
@prologic Oh boy, this is interesting, it works indeed! Thanks mate! Now I just have to read up on why that is the case.
