if we can help pinpoint the problem, please ask

[nul0op]

some tests i did:

• changed to base image in the pipeline => same error
• changed the layer just before the problem (by saving a file somewhere), just to try to avoid a layer cache issue
• on the same OS release, same dockerfile, i didn't have the issue. only difference there: i didn't build the same Dockerfile before the os upgrade (i mean with a lower docker version)
• split "docker compose --build" in a separate docker build call, with the --no-cache flag => same issue

so for me, it's only happening while docker compose build is running under the gitlab-ce runner hood, on a debian bookworm host with latest docker-ce packages (as of today)

again, if i can test something else, just ask
