Hi, I have an issue when I try to install the nRF connect SDK.
I am using Linux Fedora 39, trying to isntall SDK v2.5.0.
Steps taken so far:
- Download and install nRF command line tools
- Download nRF connect extension pack for VSCode
- In VSCode, succesfully installed toolchain v2.5.0
[22:26:54] nrfutil-toolchain-manager install v2.5.0: Download toolchain [22:32:17] nrfutil-toolchain-manager install v2.5.0: Toolchain downloaded: success [22:32:17] nrfutil-toolchain-manager install v2.5.0: Unpack toolchain [22:32:30] nrfutil-toolchain-manager install v2.5.0: Toolchain unpacked to /home/eric/ncs/tmp/.tmpb49DV9: success [22:32:30] nrfutil-toolchain-manager install v2.5.0: Install toolchain [22:32:30] nrfutil-toolchain-manager install v2.5.0: Toolchain installed at /home/eric/ncs/toolchains/7795df4459: success [22:32:30] =========== Toolchain validation report for nRF Connect SDK Toolchain v2.5.0 ===========
Then I select "Manage SDKs", "Install SDK", and then get the error below:
Command failed: git ls-remote --tags --heads https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-nrf /home/eric/ncs/toolchains/7795df4459/usr/local/libexec/git-core/git-remote-https: error while loading shared libraries: libunistring.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Interstingly, when I open the nRF connect appimage and go to the toolchain manager, it shows the SDK is installed, but that seems to be incorrect to me.
Here is the output from the nRF connect extension generate support output command:

I am not sure how to proceed from here, any help is appreciated. (I am a Linux noob)
I have seen this existing post: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/104649/toolchain-manager-not-installing-all-dependencies
I tried running the command in that post to create a symbolic link, however when I try installing the SDK again, the same error above persists.
