Hi,

I’m using SDK Manager 1.3.1.7110 and get the following error when installing JetPack 4.4.1 Linux on the host (ubuntu 18.04) with custom download folder xavier_sdkmanager_download:

...
11:34:14 INFO: VPI on Host: exec_command: dpkg -f xavier_sdkmanager_download/vpi-lib-0.4.4-cuda10-x86_64-linux.deb Package | tr -d '\n'
11:34:14 INFO: VPI on Host: exec_command: dpkg -f xavier_sdkmanager_download/vpi-lib-0.4.4-cuda10-x86_64-linux.deb Version | tr -d '\n'
11:34:14 ERROR: VPI on Host: command terminated with error
11:34:14 SUMMARY: VPI Cross Compile Package on Host: Depends on failed component
...

And similar errors for other packages.
When I run the command in terminal, no error occurs:

$ sudo dpkg -f xavier_sdkmanager_download/vpi-lib-0.4.4-cuda10-x86_64-linux.deb Package | tr -d '\n'
vpi$ echo $?
0

I can even install the packages manually without issues, but the SDK Manager always responds with INSTALLATION ERROR.

How can I fix it?

We need more logs to check the root cause of the error. Could you please package and attach ~/.nvsdkm directory on your host machine?

I removed all nvidia repository links from /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* and did an sudo apt update. Then I removed the Nvidia driver and all cuda related packages via sudo apt purge ....
Afterwards the installation on host worked.

Then I had issues installing on the AGX Xavier device which I could fix by providing an absolute download directory instead of a relative one.

Hope this helps anybody with similar issues!
