This error occurs on ubuntu-latest - GH switched it to 24.04 release recently. With ubuntu-22.04 still works flawlessly.

[saghul]

I guess installing the binfmt-support package on the host system should also work?

[saghul]

Replying to myself: yeah, installing that package works too.

[jirutka]

Is this still a problem? I use ubuntu-latest in this repository’s CI workflow and it still works: https://github.com/jirutka/setup-alpine/actions/runs/11766683795/job/32774514075.
