command not found even if I installed it

Description

Here is my template to launch lima vm, as you can see that I'm trying to install wolfictl tool into it, but the VM that I launched didn't have that binary, did I do something wrong?

I'm confused that the regular cloud-init output seems missing, but maybe this provides a clue:

$ limactl shell test-playground cat /var/log/cloud-init-output.log

Can't you build the tool "somewhere else", and then just download it ?

This is like that 800M docker image, that had a 2M snake game in it:

We have #distroless , but maybe we need a #builderless hash tag. 😀

this seems not an issue anymore since I didn't achieve to install go to alpine, now I achieved:

chainguard-dev/melange#473

We can close this
