I booted up an Ubuntu 24.04 VM in Incus, installed Snap, used Snap to install Distrobuilder, and downloaded the Ubuntu config example.

I get this error:

root@ubuntu-vm:~# distrobuilder --version                                                                                                                                                                                                               
3.1
root@ubuntu-vm:~# distrobuilder build-incus ubuntu.yaml

Same result with build-dir:
