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 all, 
I'm happy to let you know you can now download nrfutil for Arm64 here:

Hi Hung,
The nrfutil for Arm64 is very good, but I found that it doesn't have nrf5sdk-tools, so I can't use the dfu command.

Hi ACyrus, 
Unfortunately the legacy library may not be ported to this platform anytime soon. Please give us some more detail on the DFU use case.

My device uses NRF52832. Now I need to use Raspberry Pi 5 to upgrade it with ble or cli.
1 But the nrfutil (Arm64 version) released now cannot use the dfu function and cannot be upgraded.(can not install nrf5sdk-tools)
2 pip instsall nrfutil because the latest version can only download 5.2.0. There is a problem when using serial upgrade. It may be necessary to downgrade Python2. But we must use Python3.
This is the error message when doing dfu upgrade with nrfutil V5.2.0. And I use python3.11.2.

I would like to ask if there is a good way to do dfu on Raspberry Pi 5?
