error provisioning kubernetes: error at 'downloading and installing'

Description

I get the following error trying to run colima start --kubernetes

colima start --kubernetes
INFO[0000] starting colima
INFO[0000] runtime: docker+k3s
INFO[0001] starting ...                                  context=vm

FATA[0029] error provisioning kubernetes: error at 'downloading and installing': error downloading 'https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s/releases/download//k3s': error validating SHA sum for 'k3s': exit status 1

Looks like it should get this default version

colima/environment/container/kubernetes/kubernetes.go

Line 21 in 281757a

DefaultVersion = "v1.28.3+k3s2"

but it's missing somehow, can see the url is malformed at releases/download//k3s.
is there a config I can set explicitly to set the version and work around this quickly?

Looks like this workaround works
#677 (comment)
colima start --kubernetes --kubernetes-version="v1.24.3+k3s1"

Might still be worth figuring out why the default version isn't getting passed through though
