Package manager based installations cannot be used due to this bug anymore, must be reverted to 0.3.2-1.

Hi @dmclf and @Blefish thanks for raising this issue. I'll take a look into it and get back to you.

Looks like this is still an issue levant_0.3.3_linux_amd64.zip after installing on a debian host today

@username-is-already-taken2 I suppose Levant is not actively maintained, seeing this (potentially not highly complicated issue?) is open for over a year now and 0.3.3 was the last release.

(any formal reading from Hashicorp related to Levant and if it is still to be used, or avoided?)

it seems still actively mentioned on

• https://developer.hashicorp.com/nomad/tutorials/templates
  • https://developer.hashicorp.com/nomad/tutorials/templates/dry-jobs-levant
  • https://developer.hashicorp.com/nomad/tutorials/templates/levant-abstract-jobs

but they do have some section now like

Nomad Pack is a new package manager and templating tool that can be used instead of Levant. Nomad Pack is currently in Tech Preview and may change during development.
