+Subject: [PATCH] Fix faulty runc version commit scrape
+
+This commit replaces faulty logic to determine the runc version commit hash.
+
+The original logic takes the second line of the output of "runc --version" and
+does not work if there are a different number of lines printed from the command
+than expected. The buildroot version of runc outputs two lines instead of the
+expected three, causing the error:
+
+unknown output format: runc version commit: ...
+
+This patch replaces this logic with a simple scan of the "runc --version"
+output, searching for the "runc version commit" prefixed line.
