Hello,
is there any chance to fix it or provide a temporarely workaround?

[VenelinBakalov]

Hi @unbreakabl3 , I think we managed to solve this issue with the following PR: #140
@akumanov-vmw could you confirm if I am right?
If that is the case, we should have the fix in the next release

[VenelinBakalov]

Closed with #140
Release in v2.5.1

[VenelinBakalov]

Opened an issue in Build Tools for Aria repo as well since the fix needs to be implemented there:
vmware/build-tools-for-vmware-aria#427

[VenelinBakalov]

@unbreakabl3 the exec package is re-added and will be released with the next Build Tools version release (most likely 2.44.0):
vmware/build-tools-for-vmware-aria#435

Note that this means the exec package will be released as well with a version of 2.44.0 meaning that in order to run the action you will need to adjust the Default version setting which by default is set to 2.38.1

I will open a subsequent bug since the action now executes but does not show execution logs, only ID and result.
