Hello, Any ideas why Pulumi install script does not seem to work on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS?

$ curl -sSL <https://get.pulumi.com> | sh

gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

We're sorry, but it looks like something might have gone wrong during installation.

Worse than that, once I have installed manually from backup (setting up new laptop), and then run the script to update, the script has wiped out my existing install...

$ pulumi version
bash: /home/lech/.pulumi/bin/pulumi: No such file or directory

That sounds like a bug! Would you mind opening an issue on the Pulumi GitHub repo (pulumi/pulumi)?

-f

just changes the fail mode, the worrying thing here is "gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file". This looks just like https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/9660. I suspect you have curl installed via snap, and that seems to have issues writing to /tmp which the install script uses.

Thanks @echoing-dinner-19531!

Yes, I have installed curl with snap, because it was showing later version than apt... 🙃 Thanks @echoing-dinner-19531!
