    Hej!

    I'm a new user of unity and use 2020.03.17f1 unity on Manjaro Linux. I tried installing the Android Build Support module, but installing always stops midway. Strangely, in unity hub I see that Android SDK & NDK Tools as well as OpenJDK are installed, but not Android Build Support.
    This mentions I need p7zip, which I do have installed. (I'm not sure about the plugins)
    Any ideas what's wrong?

    This is many months after your post, so not sure if you still need the info. I'm using a Pixelbook with Debian and was having this problem. If you find the log files for Unity Hub (for me, it was from the home directory in .config/unityhub/logs/info-log.json. There was a line saying it was failing from not having cpio installed: "
    cpio: not found". After that was installed, it all worked fine!
