Graalvm nativeimage build fails - java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: libkernel32.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Issue

We use yoour java docker project without ours: https://github.com/halkyonio/java-kind-client/blob/main/pom.xml#L74-L85 but the graalvm build fails and reports as error: libkernel32.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

HW: Apple M2 Pro
OS: MAc Sequoia 15.5
java-docker version: 3.4.1

We can get rid of the kernel error if we pass as graalvm argument

--initialize-at-run-time=com.github.dockerjava.transport.NamedPipeSocket$Kernel32

But we got now another error

The culprit object has been instantiated by the 'org.apache.hc.client5.http.impl.auth.NTLMEngineImpl' class initializer with the following trace:
        at java.security.SecureRandom.<init>(SecureRandom.java:331)

The object was probably created by a class initializer and is reachable from a static field. You can request class initialization at image runtime by using the option --initialize-at-run-time=<class-name>. Or you can write your own initialization methods and call them explicitly from your main entry point.

Please change you http client, and it works for me.

        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.github.docker-java</groupId>
            <artifactId>docker-java-transport-httpclient5</artifactId>
            <version>3.5.0</version>
        </dependency>

DockerHttpClient dockerHttpClient = new ApacheDockerHttpClient.Builder()
        .dockerHost(config.getDockerHost())
        .sslConfig(config.getSSLConfig())
        .build()

I have to manually add

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.brotli</groupId>
            <artifactId>dec</artifactId>
            <version>0.1.2</version>
        </dependency>

too for it to work.
