Your platform may differ from the Docker environment, though. What OS and shell are you running on?

I'm unable to repro on Ubuntu 14.04:

mungler commented on July 29, 2024

No, definitely didn't set any of the env vars.

@mungler I'd try modifying the script to see if you can get it to work, then we'll work backwards from there. I'll try to repro tonight.
