Intermittent 'ERROR: Missing bzcat' error

[ElnuDev]

I'm infecting a clean copy of Ubuntu 22.04 LTS on DigitalOcean. Intermittently, when infecting, I get an error that says ERROR: Missing bzcat. The weird thing about this is that it's intermittent, I've done nix-infect several times and it's happened twice, but all the other times there was no issue. All of these were clean installations of Ubuntu.
