Windows Terminal version (or Windows build number)

1.8.1032.0, 1.7.1033.0

Other Software

A new MSIX installer for the Julia language that I'm working on (https://github.com/davidanthoff/winjulia). The installer is available for tryout at https://winjulia.david-anthoff.com/. The appx file that has the fragment in it and the JSON in the app manifest is available at https://winjulia.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/JuliaApp-x64-1.0.0.32.appx.

Steps to reproduce

Go to https://winjulia.david-anthoff.com/ and install Julia from the link on that page. That will trigger an MSIX App Installer setup and install Julia.

Expected Behavior

I would have expected a new profile to show up in Windows Terminal for Julia automatically.

Actual Behavior

No profile appears. I think I must be making some mistake in how I am creating the fragment, but I can't figure out what is wrong.

The appx manifest I'm using is https://github.com/davidanthoff/winjulia/blob/master/msix/appxmanifest.xml, the fragment I'm adding is https://github.com/davidanthoff/winjulia/blob/master/msix/Fragments/Julia.json, and that file is put into the folder Public\Fragments via https://github.com/davidanthoff/winjulia/blob/master/msix/PackagingLayout.xml#L8.
