Subject: [PATCH container v2 4/4] setup: make the architecture fall back to amd64 for falsy values
Date: Fri,  6 Feb 2026 13:45:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260206124513.310674-5-d.kral@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260206124513.310674-1-d.kral@proxmox.com>

The architecture fallback branch relied on detect_architecture(...)
failing and therefore $arch being undef afterwards.

However, if protected_call(sub { detect_architecture(...) }) itself
returns a defined, falsy value, such as a empty string converted from an
undef value, the 'arch' field will be set to that value, which will make
the container fail to start.

Therefore, fallback to 'amd64' for any falsy $arch value.

  - adapt patch message regarding the protected_call(...)
