SDK Manager on Linux crashes when downloading SDKs and they fail when compiling an app.

I am running an arch linux system and have downloaded the SDK manager.

The manager starts fine but when I download an SDK it crashes with the error message:

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

When I open the manager again it says the SDK is installed and I can set it as my current SDK, but when I try to compile an app with it, it throws up a bunch of errors that weren't coming up before such as:

Cannot resolve type 'Boolean'

This happens for any SDK newer than 4.0

If I download SDK version 4.0.2 it still gives the seg fault but the SDK works to compile an app.

  • I can confirm the SDK Manager issue is a known issue that affects both Windows and Linux—we should have a fix out for it soon.

    The 'Unable to connect to simulator' error is something that pops up now and then, and we're still working on a solution. I encounter it occasionally on Mac if I try running an app without the simulator already running.

    One other thing to mention: we only officially support Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and cannot guarantee that our SDK will work properly when run on other distros.

    When will "soon" be? As it stands, the SDK Manager and therefore the latest SDK is completely unusable due to this.

    I've just tried on a fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, and it first it complains about missing libcurl.so. After installing curl, on the first run it segfaults right after saying there's a list of new devices and new SDK 6.2.1 for download. After re-running and clicking the download button for SDK 6.2.1, it waits for a bit and then segfaults again.

    Is there a workaround? Maybe we could download the SDK from somewhere directly rather than relying on the broken SDK Manager?
