q update does not work 1.17.1 -> 1.18.1

Checks

• I have searched github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues and there are no duplicates of my issue
• I have run q doctor in the affected terminal session
• I have run q restart and replicated the issue again

Operating system

Linux 5.15.167.4-microsoft-standard-WSL2 - Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS

Expected behaviour

q update should update the q cli properly

Actual behaviour

Trying to update Q provokes the following error:

q update -v
2025-10-17T07:40:46.772560Z WARN fig_ipc::unix_socket: 42: Failed to get socket metadata, checking parent folder permissions err=No such file or directory (os error 2) socket="/run/user/1000/cwrun/desktop.sock"
A new version of q is available: 1.18.1

Inizia eseguendo q update -v nell'ambiente WSL2 Ubuntu segnalato e confrontalo con q doctor e q restart. Traccia l'entry point q_cli::cli::update e la connessione mancante a /run/user/1000/cwrun/desktop.sock mostrata nel report. Il lavoro è completato quando q update termina correttamente mentre il socket del desktop non è disponibile.
