can you show your bash version?
Yep - that is it! On an old container where most of our work still continues in the experiment, and this bug shows up:
[gwatts@AMDOfficeCore ~]$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 4.2.46(2)-release (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu)
Copyright (C) 2011 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html>
And on a new one that we will move to over the next 5 years (and where it works):
[gwatts@AMDOfficeCore ~]$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 5.1.8(1)-release (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu)
Copyright (C) 2020 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html>
What is the limit of where it works?
This should be suggested to be used with bash 5
Windows Version
Windows 11
Windows Build Number
22631
WSL Version
WSL 2
Distro Version
CENTOS7
WSL Utilities Version

Describe the bug
Most of the utilities I've tried give the following syntax error on this distro:
It seems like it is still doing what it is supposed to be doing, however (opening a url, etc.).
Steps to Reproduce
Expected behavior
THe output of
wslfetch
as shown above, but without the syntax errors.Additional context
Many thanks for the utilities!!
