What do I have to do to get that one reviewed?

Some GitHub Actions are failing. The error "exec: /nothing: not found" is suspicious and they haven't run in 6 months, so I suspect they are broken on master, best guess due to an Ubuntu upgrade. That'll need some investigation.

Looks like the CI is still failing, and the CI is working fine on master, so the problem is this PR.

It looks like the /nothing is a red herring. It was just part of stderr but was expected. Looking higher in the log shows the error:

com.google.protobuf.gradle.ProtobufJavaPluginTest > test proto extraction is up-to-date for testProject when changing java sources [gradle 7.6] STANDARD_ERROR

    FAILURE: 
    Build failed with an exception.


    * Where:

    Script '/home/runner/work/protobuf-gradle-plugin/protobuf-gradle-plugin/build/tests/testProject/build_base.gradle' line: 132


    * What went wrong:

    Execution failed for task ':test'.

I think you need to update the test projects, like:

You are totally right - the tests completely slipped my radar 🙈.

Actually searching the codebase reveals much more spots if output path assertions. I fixed them all. The problem is I cannot fully run the tests locally, I have no Android setup and other stuff is also missing. I tested the plugin manually after building it locally and it worked.

I had hopes I could just run it through the CI here - but it looks like GitHub is not kicking the build again....
