I have a build running in Azure DevOps, on an Ubuntu 16.04 hosted build agent. I'm using the latest version of the "Azure Powershell" task (version 4.* preview), which is supposed to be multi-platform, support Powershell core, and support using the Azure Powershell Az module.
However, it doesn't quite work. Before running any of my script, it errors out with:

The Az Powershell module appears to work/load correctly on the Windows VS2017 hosted agent, but no luck on Ubuntu. Any recommendations on fixing this?
