Unable to download nRF command line tools for MacOS

The link provided on this page, while selecting "macOS" from the left, and clicking the first link ( v10.6 ) provides the following link:

https://www.nordicsemi.com/-/media/Software-and-other-downloads/Desktop-software/nRF-command-line-tools/sw/Versions-10-x-x/nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_6_0_OSX.tar

This file does not exist on Nordic servers.  Can this link be updated so I can get these command line tools ?

  • Great, I have confirmed that this works.  Thank you !

  • Actually, it's still broken.  I can get the file, but it's packaged wrong.  There is a nested file that over-writes itself.

    Please inform the software packaging team that they have recursively packaged the tar, and as a result it will not extract.

    $ tar -xvf nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_6_0_OSX.tar
    x ./
    x ./nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_6_0_OSX.dmg
    x ./nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_6_0_OSX.tar: Refusing to overwrite archive
    tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.

    $ tar -xvf nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_6_0_OSX.tar -C /tmp/
    x ./: Can't restore time
    x ./nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_6_0_OSX.dmg
    x ./nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_6_0_OSX.tar: Truncated tar archive
    tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.

    HERE'S WHY:

    $ tar -tvf nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_6_0_OSX.tar
    drwxr-xr-x 0 swdev_build staff 0 Jan 23 11:36 ./
    -rw-r--r-- 0 swdev_build staff 28582502 Jan 23 11:36 ./nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_6_0_OSX.dmg
    -rw-r--r-- 0 swdev_build staff 9482240 Jan 23 11:35 ./nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_6_0_OSX.tar
