Description

When I try to use the render in vs code (in wsl ubuntu mode) quarto always starts a new terminal, asks for the ubuntu password and terminates.

If I call quarto render in the command line of vs code everything works perfectly (pandoc and tinytext are installed).

Thank you

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Quarto render action in VS Code's WSL-Ubuntu mode, then compare it with running quarto render directly in the VS Code terminal. Done means the render action uses the working environment without opening a new terminal, requesting the Ubuntu password, or terminating.
