On some systems, resolving Google Drive fails

[csillag]

We have encountered an issue with GoogleDrive on some of our developer systems.

We are using ffprobe @ 1.1.0, which depends on
"@ffprobe-installer/linux-x64": "4.1.0",
which installs this version:

ffprobe version N-48944-g9b069eb14e-static https://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/  Copyright (c) 2007-2019 the FFmpeg developers
built with gcc 6.3.0 (Debian 6.3.0-18+deb9u1) 20170516

And when I run this binary:

./node_modules/@ffprobe-installer/linux-x64/ffprobe  "https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1xSCWuqKG-YRhqE0LnuazY5bYTSqo3nC4"

[tcp @ 0x7011dc0] Failed to resolve hostname doc-0k-30-docs.googleusercontent.com: System error
https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1xSCWuqKG-YRhqE0LnuazY5bYTSqo3nC4: Input/output error                   

The key is in the penultimate line:
[tcp @ 0x7011dc0] Failed to resolve hostname doc-0k-30-docs.googleusercontent.com: System error

Note that simply running the ffprobe that I have on my own system, the same command runs without any errors.
So I guess it must be the ffprobe version in question, or one of the statically linked libraries.

The trick is that at another developer box, the same issue doesn't manifest... so it might be tricky to test this.
(I am willing to help.)

I guess we should move away from the ffprobe build from 2017?

Thanks.

+1 I believe it's related to this issue:

https://superuser.com/questions/1141609/android-tcp-error-failed-to-resolve-host-name-from-static-library

Essentially, it seems dns resolution is affected. I was facing the same issue with another static library before moving to this one. My issue is the same as yours in that it fails in the docker environment, but passes locally on my mac.

I shall update all the builds within the next day or 2

Let's hope that helps :)

Guys, update to v1.2.0 with all new binaries and let's hope!
