Bug description

quarto --version
1.4.555

This is too old to be used in popular IDEs such as VS Code:

How to reproduce this bug?

docker run -it rocker/verse bash

[Robinlovelace]

See issue reported, and fixed, downstream in geocompx/docker: geocompx/docker#73

I tried to find where the default version or associated logic is stored but failed, e.g. with this search: repo:rocker-org/rocker-versioned2 1.4.555

Relevant line:

rocker-versioned2/scripts/install_quarto.sh

Line 17 in 92aa18e

QUARTO_VERSION=${1:-${QUARTO_VERSION:-"default"}}

Many thanks for making the install scripts take bash arguments, just realised that, used gratefully in the downstream fix: geocompx/docker@f34ab5f

This is expected behavior for the version of Quarto bundled with RStudio.
If you want to install the latest version, specify “latest” and you should be able to do so.

[Robinlovelace]

Oh OK, thanks for the clarification. I assumed the latest version of RStudio would also need a later version. Sorry for the spam.

[eitsupi]

Never mind.
The strategy here is to keep Quarto CLI fixed and consistent in behavior, so it is just set to use the version bundled with RStudio.
