nrf Util: when will the Linux Arm64 be released?

[charles.g]

Hi all,

I'm looking into speeding up my workflow using remote development containers on ARM servers, but it seems some tools are missing, nrfutil the first, to run a fully fledge dev environment. I saw there's a MacOS version for ARM64, I'd imagine the hardest has already been made? When do you plan on releasing it for Linux?

Do you know any other tool that won't like working on ARM?

Cheers,

Charles

Hi Charles, 
Unfortunately the status now is still it's not supported and we don't have the ETA yet. 
I would suggest to send your request to our local RSM so that it get more priority in the list.

We’d like to chime in and share our experience using compact Linux/ARM64 systems for programming nRF52, nRF53, and nRF91 targets with Nordic and Segger's proprietary tools in controlled production setups.

However, the lack of a Linux/ARM64 version of the newer nrfutil tool has become a bottleneck for supporting nRF54 and future Nordic platforms. Right now, we’re forced to include x86-64 systems in our production fixtures just to accommodate this tool, adding unnecessary complexity and cost.

An ARM64-compatible version of nrfutil would significantly streamline our production process. We’d really appreciate it if Nordic could prioritize this development to better support modern ARM-based workflows.
