What version of ripgrep are you using?

ripgrep 11.0.1

ripgrep --pre=nonexist hi

currently prints

textfile: No such file or directory (os error 2)
otherfile: No such file or directory (os error 2)

which looks like those files are non existent, even though it is in fact the preprocessing binary that is missing. It would be great if you could improve the error message to show e.g. Could not find preprocessing binary nonexist.
