Image build on WSL (windows subsystem for Linux) on W11

[nerdrunner]

I've successfully used image builder for years on pure Ubuntu Linux, so I thought I'd try it out on WSL,
which has a version of Ubuntu Linux.

It almost works, but at the end of the build there is a complaint about a relative path in the PATH variable:

/home/myname/openwrt-imagebuilder-21.02.3-ath79-nand.Linux-x86_64/staging_dir/host/bin/find: The relative path 'Files' is included in the PATH environment variable, which is insecure in combination with the -execdir action of find. Please remove that entry from $PATH make[2]: *** [Makefile:174: prepare_rootfs] Error 1 make[1]: *** [Makefile:123: _call_image] Error 2 make: *** [Makefile:240: image] Error 2

Disclaimer: not using WSL2 myself.

I assume you're falling over spaces in some of the directories in your $PATH (Program Files comes to mind), just remove those from your PATH definition.

Confirming WSL2 builds on W11 work fine. Will set specifics here later.

Just for reference, building with OpenSUSE 15.3:

~> cat /etc/os-release
NAME="openSUSE Leap"
VERSION="15.3"
ID="opensuse-leap"
ID_LIKE="suse opensuse"
VERSION_ID="15.3"
PRETTY_NAME="openSUSE Leap 15.3"
ANSI_COLOR="0;32"
CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:opensuse:leap:15.3"
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.opensuse.org"
HOME_URL="https://www.opensuse.org/"

and

> wsl --status
Default Distribution: openSUSE-Leap-15.3
Default Version: 2
Kernel version: 5.10.102.1

> ver
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22000.1219]

Thanks to fodiator & slh; removing spaces from PATH solved the problem.

The spaces were inserted by nVidia for something nVidia installed; I'm not clear whether
these spaces would work for nVidia either.

I hope someone from nVidia is listening...
