Is it an option to use the latest packer version?

[yussufsh]

Instead of packer version can we use packer --version? See the difference below.

# ./packer version
Packer v1.3.2
# ./packer --version
1.3.2

@joepvd I am working on ppc64le, which does not yet have packer 1.3.3 binary released.

I tried the above changes in the packer-assests/*-system-info-commands.yml, works for me. Do you want to me to raise a PR for this?

[joepvd]

Yah, saw that there are no binaries released yet for ppc64le. A shame that packer complains about not having the newest release, if it is not available. I am good with your proposed change :+1:
