$ echo \#!/usr/bin/python > k
$ chmod +x k
$ ./k
bash: ./k: cannot execute: required file not found
Bash should really mention what file it is talking about.
$ echo 'x:k; ./$<' > Makefile
$ make
./k
make: ./k: No such file or directory
make: *** [Makefile:1: x] Error 127
$ ls ./k
./k
Make is worse. Can't make more confusing messages than that one.
Yes,
$ ls /usr/bin/python*
/usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/python3.11
but that's not the point.
