Can't verify / upload for esp32-s3

Code: Select all

exit status 1
Error compiling for board ESP32S3 Dev Module.
How can I get this working?

I've tried everything I can find online.

Brand new install of Debian 12 and the repository version of the IDE 1.8.19.

P.S.:

I have the pyserial thing fixed and now can verify and upload. But am still getting:
WARNING: Category '' in library ESP Insights is not valid. Setting to 'Uncategorized'
WARNING: Category '' in library ESP RainMaker is not valid. Setting to 'Uncategorized'
WARNING: Category '' in library WiFiProv is not valid. Setting to 'Uncategorized'

I don't know if Arduino has added some additional check in 1.8.19, but that should be a cosmetic error. If it really bugs you, add `category=Communication` to the library.properties file in each of those libraries.

Doesn't really bug me, just wasn't sure. I'll roll with it.

Thanks,
