I'm just gonna patch lsb_release so that it says I'm on "Mozilla Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye), like Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS"

fun fact:
to run python in github actions, on windows, some typescript code calls a powerscript command to find out what windows it is, so it knows which python to use.

that's three different languages. four if you count the cmd.exe shell

I think I'm gonna rethink our "move CI stuff to github actions" plans. This one annoyance is proving so hard to fix properly that I'm thinking it'll just be less work to go back to Jenkins
