script exits with error on ARM64 platform

[apisashla]

I know this hasn't been updated in a while which is fine, but in case anyone has had a similar issue and found a workaround, I'm having trouble running snap-sync on my ARM platform (Raspberry Pi 400 running EndeavourOS, an Arch derivative.) Was happy to find it packaged for aarch64 at all, but it doesn't appear to run.

After installation via yay, attempting to run the interactive script with no options and a blank btrfs-formatted usb mounted results in the following:

Could not connect: No such file or directory

bash line: 171
function name: notify

If I knew more about either btrfs or dbus I'm sure I could find a solution, but I don't. Thanks in advance!

Edit: in case it's relevant, I was accessing this pi via ssh-tunneled TigerVNC at the time.

@apisashla I got the same error on archlinux, except the first part was more descriptive (didn't write it down and have fixed it since, but it said something like this):

[...] The name org.freedesktop.Notifications was not provided by any .service files
Exited due to error on line 163.
exit status: 1
command: sudo [...]
bash line: 171

I fixed it by installing a notification server.

@dcanuhe Thanks! I do actually have a notification server on that particular Arch device, which is why I was confused - however, I was able to run it anyway by running with the -q option, so I'd recommend that to anyone running into that problem on aarch64 device and/or EndeavourOS and/or KDE.
