    I have the Mac and Windows Build support modules added. It seems to download each time I click on "done", but oddly enough it doesn't say "installed".

    Clicking on done:

    Afterwards it seems to indicate that the mac/windows support is still not installed, because it would show up here, right?

    Still not showing up as option:

    So what's going on here? Why is Mac and Windows support not being installed?

    Ok well, the Hub is just incredibly useless. Doesn't give any information IF the installation worked/failed, nor does it tell you why it's failing. After using Unity for 9 years it's really sad to see that Linux is still so badly supported - even UI scaling isn't available (but it is on windows)....

    You can find the actual logs with USEFUL information here:
    ~> cat ~/.config/UnityHub/logs/info-log.json

    Turns out cpio is required (and of course there isn't any warning/notice about that), so you can just `yay -S cpio` that and it works afterwards.
