IDB: Current setting isn't a valid IDB installation

See original GitHub issue

🐛 Bug Report

Apologies, this may not be a bug per se but I could not find any forum or other place where I can find help. This is the first time for me using Flipper. After having followed the instructions, I was able to install Flipper on my Macbook air M1 (2020) Monterey. When I open “Setup Doctor”, everything is green except a warning with IDB:

IDB is required to use Flipper with IOS devices. (...)
Current settings:
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.10/bin isn't a valid IDB installation.

I followed the instructions on this repository and also on facebook IDB page.

To Reproduce

Install Flipper according to instructions Install facebook IDB companion and client

Environment

OS: MacOS Monterey 12.0.1, Chip Apple M1 Flipper version: 0.123.0 (50.0.0) Android Studio Artic Fox 2020.3.1 Patch 3 XCode 13.2 beta 2

@seyaobey-dev many thanks for reaching out.

That doesn’t seem the path to the idb binary. On macOS, can you please execute this on the terminal: which idb

That’ll print out the path to idb. Copy the value and set it into Flipper -> Settings.

For example, this is a valid path for idb: /usr/local/bin/idb

Please make sure the IDB setting ends with /idb and restart Flipper. Is the file readable by flipper and executable? use ll /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.10/bin/idb to verify
