When I try to run Distrod on a User which has a white space in its home directory (e.g. C:\Users\My Account), the import of the downloaded archive breaks.
[Distrod][ERROR] Failed to register the distribution.
Create a new local user with a name separated by a whitespace, it is mandatory the user has its home directory with the same name format (C:\Users\My Account)
Run distrod and choose to download a container image from linuxcontainers.org
Choose Rocky Linux (21)
Choose version 8
Wait for the download and then the error should appear during the import
Expected behavior
Successful import of the downloaded distro image into WSL
Windows version
Windows 11 21H2 (Build SO 22000.856)
Linux kernel version

Thanks for trying Distrod! Choose your distribution to install.
You can install a local .tar.xz, or download an image from linuxcontainers.org.
* linuxcontainers.org is a vendor-neutral project that offers distro images for
containers, which is not related to Distrod. LXC/LXD is one of its projects.
BTW, you can run Systemd with distrod, so you can try LXC/LXD with distrod!
