Error: Latest release not available for platform 'x86_64-linux-gnu-ubuntu24.04'!

[aitesam961]

This issue originates from pulp-ara. I can confirm that it works perfectly on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS but seems not to work with 24.04.

Log

ind: ‘deps’: No such file or directory
find: ‘deps’: No such file or directory
bender-init: Warning: No release for platform 'x86_64-linux-gnu-ubuntu24.04' version '0.27.3' found, using latest.
sh: 329: [[: not found
bender-init: Error: Latest release not available for platform 'x86_64-linux-gnu-ubuntu24.04'!

QS: Is there a way to make it usable on 24.04LTS or would the bender be limited to 22 LTS?

Steps to Reproduce:

# requires a 24.04LTS machine
git clone <pulp-ara
git submodule update --init --recursive
git submodule sync --recursive
cd hardware
make checkout

To Quickly try out this issue:
Spin up a public github repo and use the attached actions.yaml file content

The script here, linked in the ara hardware makefile downloads the referenced bender version from the github releases. If there is a prebuilt version available for your OS, it will download this, otherwise mention that it is unavailable, check the most recent bender version for a compatible binary, and then download the default linux-gnu version. This default version should also work, as far as I know, however there seems to be an issue in the script that causes the download to fail for you:

bender/init

Line 329 in e6af4f7

if [[ $_platform =~ ^$_fallback.*$ ]]; then

Let's make sure the download script works correctly when the specified version & OS is not available, I will open a PR with an initial fix. Adding the new OS version as you did in #176 of course also makes sense.
