ERROR: pack build with google-22 builder fails detection on Apple M1 Pro/Max

[luispinto-commercetools]

Describe the bug
The pack build command fails with the error "ERROR: No buildpack groups passed detection." when using the gcr.io/buildpacks/builder:google-22 builder image on Apple M1 Pro and M1 Max machines. This issue started occurring after the latest push of the google-22 image. The same command works on Ubuntu.

Additional context
How are you using GCP buildpacks?

• pack and the gcr.io/buildpacks/builder
• Cloud Functions
• Cloud Run
• Cloud Build
• App Engine Standard
• App Engine Flex
• Firebase App Hosting

Did this used to work?
Yes. This was working before the latest update to the gcr.io/buildpacks/builder:google-22 image. The issue started occurring yesterday (April 14, 2025).

What language is your project primarily written in?
Javascript/Typescript - nodejs runtime

Steps To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Ensure you have the latest pack CLI installed.
2. Run the command: pack build --builder=gcr.io/buildpacks/builder:google-22 test --verbose on an Apple M1 Pro or M1 Max machine.
3. Observe the error.

Expected behavior
The pack build command should successfully detect buildpacks and proceed with the build process, resulting in a container image.

Actual behavior
The pack build command fails during the detection phase with the following error:

I have exactly the same error on Mac Air M1
and it can be reproduced with sample-node app from https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/buildpack-samples.git

as a temp workaround I'm building with previous buildpack version
pack build --builder=gcr.io/buildpacks/builder:@sha256:5977b4bd47d3e9ff729eefe9eb99d321d4bba7aa3b14986323133f40b622aef1

This resolved the issue for me, otherwise same issue on an M3 Max.

Last worked a month ago, now getting the exact error as above.

[austencollins]

Same issue on M4 Max.

The error in detection is the same for the current v1 image and the universal_builder_20250413_RC00 image. Using older images works for me, too (on M1 Pro).

[isno]

Same issue on Linux

Same issue on Mac M1 Pro - workaround from @steals helped
