#65384: docker-machine-parallels @2.0.1: build fails, possibly due to outdated
golang.org/x/sys requirement

     Type:  defect    |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal    |  Milestone:
Component:  ports     |    Version:  2.7.2
 Keywords:            |       Port:  docker-machine-parallels
----------------------+--------------------------------------
 This port does not build (reproducible on both x86_64 and arm64
 architectures). The build spits out several errors of the following form:

 {{{
 ../../../../pkg/mod/golang.org/x/sys at v0.0.0-20190422165155-953cdadca894/unix/zsyscall_darwin_arm64.go:28:3:
 //go:linkname must refer to declared function or variable
 }}}

 Some googling [1] suggests that the root of the problem is that the
 go.lang/x/sys dependency pulls in a version of golang.org/x/sys that is
 too old. This is an indirect dependency, coming from golang.org/x/crypto;
 in turn, docker-machine-parallels hard-codes the golang.org/x/crypto
 dependency as a version from August 2020.

 So: I am hoping that this can be fixed by updating the docker-machine-
 parallels go.mod to pull in a newer version of golang.org/x/crypto.

 Caveat: I know nothing about the go language at all, and this is the first
 time I have ever looked into a go.mod or go.sum file.

 I am using the latest macOS (12.4) and Xcode (13.4.1).

 For reference, I've attached the full (and fairly short) build logs from
 both x86_64 and arm64 machines.

 Thanks - Ben.
