@rgwilson68 Could you please review this PR? I tested this PR with apptainer v1.2.2 on Rocky Linux 9 host.
MoonRay v1.3.0.0 can build without libcgroup* package dependency by the following changes on
openmoonray/arras/arras4_core/arras4_core_impl/lib/execute/ControlGroup.h

v1.2.0.0

  7 #include <libcgroup.h>

v1.3.0.0

  7 #ifdef ARRAS_ENABLE_CGROUP
  8 #include <libcgroup.h>
  9 #else
 10 #include "cgroup_stubs.h"
 11 #endif
