parsing error on centos platform

[rootmout]

Describe the bug

In a centos environment, the jq binary installed from dnf does not work in the same way as the one downloaded directly from github 1.6 releases page

To Reproduce

ℹ️ the dockerfile used is at the end of this issue.

user@laptop:~/$ podman run rootmout/debub-jq-parsing-error-in-centos:v1.0.0 cat entry_file.txt 
I am not a jsonee line
{"code":200,"message":"I am a json line","stack":"","level":"info"}
user@laptop:~/$ podman run rootmout/debub-jq-parsing-error-in-centos:v1.0.0 jq --version
jq-1.6
user@laptop:~/$ podman run rootmout/debub-jq-parsing-error-in-centos:v1.0.0 jq -R 'fromjson' entry_file.txt
jq: error (at entry_file.txt:1): Invalid numeric literal at line 1, column 2 (while parsing 'I am not a jsonee line')
jq: error (at entry_file.txt:2): Invalid numeric literal at line 1, column 12 (while parsing '{"code":200,"message":"I am a json line","stack":"","level":"info"}')
user@laptop:~/$ podman run rootmout/debub-jq-parsing-error-in-centos:v1.0.0 ./jq-linux64 --version
jq-1.6
user@laptop:~/$ podman run rootmout/debub-jq-parsing-error-in-centos:v1.0.0 ./jq-linux64 -R 'fromjson' entry_file.txt
jq: error (at entry_file.txt:1): Invalid numeric literal at line 1, column 2 (while parsing 'I am not a jsonee line')
{
  "code": 200,
  "message": "I am a json line",
  "stack": "",
  "level": "info"
}

rootmout/debub-jq-parsing-error-in-centos:v1.0.0 contain the binary jq installed by dnf and the ./jq-linux64 installed with wget from github, both are in version 1.6 and use the same file as entry but one installed by dnf fail with a parsing error while other is working fine.

Expected behavior

Both binary should work the same way.

Environment (please complete the following information):

• OS and Version: CentOS Stream release 8
• jq version: 1.6

Hi, i suspect it might have to do with #2400 and it seems like the author of that PR also has fixed it in redhats packaging of jq, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2008983 and https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/rpms/jq/-/tree/c9s. But then wouldn't it be the other way around? dnf installed would work but 1.6 from release would fail? strange
