For processes, this exporter us currently using:
https://github.com/mitchellh/go-ps/

This library has been unmaintained for 5 years. It does not support NetBSD, OpenBSD, or AIX. All of which are things my team is building for.

The majority of collector components are using this library instead:
https://github.com/shirou/gopsutil

It handles a lot more in terms of both OS and capabilities.

For now, I've had to remove your exporter from our builds, but I would like to include it.

The exporter is not using that directly, but rather inheriting it from our extension, which it uses as a dependency. open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib#33403 will resolve this issue.
