Runtime cgo error on CentOS 7.9.2009

[Morphdust]

Bug description brief Any call to yq causes runtime error. runtime/cgo: pthread_create failed: Operation not permitted

Description Using yq on cluster machines externally managed, I assume a system update was performed in-between using the machines. yq installation got updated to v4.44.1 few days ago and new version causes crash. Reverted to v4.40.5 (rev 2450 in snap) and issue goes away instantly. Other machines escaped the update and have v4.40.5 and have no issue. Issue is repeatable when upgrading back again to the latest version.

Version of yq: v4.44.1 Operating system: CentOS 7.9.2009 (x86_64) / Linux kernel 3.10.0 Installed via: snap

Issue present without any input yaml at all. Even running the following causes the same error: yq help

Odd. I wonder if this is a snap thing. Does this happen when you run the same version binaries from yq's github releases page?

Just double checked and yep you're right, when using the version from the github binaries there's no issue and it works fine with v4.44.1

So must be an issue with snap?
