Linux - cluster-setting file not created

[barnabasbusa]

What's your CLI version?

1.4.1

Description & steps to reproduce

If you configure your config with kubernetes configuration it will not automatically populate cluster-setting file on Debian.

~/.config/kurtosis/kurtosis-config.yml

It will fail with:

Error:  An error occurred running command 'start'
  Caused by: An error occurred creating an engine manager
  Caused by: An error occurred getting the Kurtosis cluster config
  Caused by: Expected to find Kurtosis configuration for cluster '', instead found nothing

To fix the issue, you can manually create cluster-setting at ~/.local/share/kurtosis/cluster-setting and set it to docker with no new linebreak.

echo -n "docker" > ~/.local/share/kurtosis/cluster-setting then do a kurtosis engine restart

Desired behavior

Ideally when someone installs kurtosis for the first time it should create the cluster-setting file as well, and populate it with docker. It would be very nice to have this file also located in the same directory as kurtosis config, instead of a completely other seemingly random dir.

It is already in the same dir on macos.

What is the severity of this bug?

Painful; this is causing significant friction in my workflow.
