The image pointed to by the fedora:latest tag has moved from fedora 41 to 42. The fedora 41 container images have awk installed while the fedora 42 images do not. That change is most likely just part of reducing the size of the base container images. In both AlmaLinux and Fedora (as well as other RHEL derivatives/relatives), awk is provided by the gawk package. On Fedora, `dnf install awk` would work, but for unintended reasons! It uses the package filelist data to determine that /usr/bin/awk is provided by gawk and installs gawk as a result. On AlmaLinux (8 & 9, by my quick testing), that is not the case and you'd need to use `dnf install gawk` or `dnf install '*bin/awk'` to get it installed. Having said that, awk _is_ included in the current AlmaLinux 8 and 9 images, so it isn't strictly needed. But it's probably better to be explicit that we need it installed, as a defense against some future change to the AlmaLinux container removing awk. Using the package name "gawk" is the right thing to do. Note that even '*bin/awk' would have worked, but it is less specific. And who knows, maybe in the far future a BSD variant of awk is offered, too, and would then cause ambiguities. Best to avoid that.
