GOSU cmd fails within Circleci build

Trying to build the basic Postgresql 9.6 container, which includes the following:

grab gosu for easy step-down from root

ENV GOSU_VERSION 1.10
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends ca-certificates wget
RUN rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
RUN wget -O /usr/local/bin/gosu “https://github.com/tianon/gosu/releases/download/GOSU_VERSION/gosu-(dpkg --print-architecture)”
RUN export GNUPGHOME="$(mktemp -d)"
RUN chmod +x /usr/local/bin/gosu
RUN gosu nobody true
RUN apt-get purge -y --auto-remove ca-certificates wget

The RUN gosu nobody true cmd (to test the gosu function is working) returns an error within the circle ci build.

Error:
Step 10/31 : RUN gosu nobody true
