Describe the bug

curl 'archive rpc url' \
-X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
--data '{"method":"debug_traceTransaction","params":["0x6b5ca68eb4c4b38690ec12ba9f85409b618759646e50ab53b28f9d67f74978fc", {"tracer": "callTracer"}], "id":1,"jsonrpc":"2.0"}'

but when I use cast run to repro the tx it revert locally.

cast run 0x6b5ca68eb4c4b38690ec12ba9f85409b618759646e50ab53b28f9d67f74978fc --rpc-url=https://rpc.ankr.com/eth

Looks like this is related to cast not picking up the correct hard fork number to execute the transaction against

When running cast run 0x6b5ca68eb4c4b38690ec12ba9f85409b618759646e50ab53b28f9d67f74978fc --rpc-url=https://rpc.ankr.com/eth --evm-version spuriousDragon the transaction executes succesfully

Thanks! And I wonder:

maybe stupid Q:

curl -X POST https://rpc.ankr.com/eth -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"trace_transaction","params":["0x6b5ca68eb4c4b38690ec12ba9f85409b618759646e50ab53b28f9d67f74978fc"],"id":1}'

there’s only 8 traces of the tx missing the trace of calling the 0x4 precompile contract.
Can check the 0x4 precompile contract call using following command:

curl 'archive rpc url' \
-X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
--data '{"method":"debug_traceTransaction","params":["0x6b5ca68eb4c4b38690ec12ba9f85409b618759646e50ab53b28f9d67f74978fc", {"tracer": "callTracer"}], "id":1,"jsonrpc":"2.0"}'

looking to add a warning if the evm version cannot be inferred automatically
