This is so odd. A full week went by and the linux & plugin ide development environment remain broken without a single follow-up, acknowledgement and/or neither a complain. Makes you wonder if anyone dev espressif products on the linux side, so odd and worrying...

Sorry for the inactivity folks, part of the team is currently away due to the Chinese New Year. We'll be more active next week.

On the topic of the issue, could you please try installing libsdl-2.0 and see if that fixes the issue?

esp-idf/tools/docker/Dockerfile

Line 25 in 4d90eed

libsdl2-2.0-0 \

(that's a new dependency introduced by QEMU, we'll try to fix it before v5.3 release. Installing the library should fix the problem in the meantime.)

[GTCLive]

Updating master and installing libslirp0 seems to resolve both the dependency and qemu error. Grateful for passing on the dockerfile, @igrr. Great pointers!

[diplfranzhoepfinger]

sudo apt install libslirp0
