Dexcalibur 0.7.5 install does not complete, no sdk_androidapi_29_google.dex #40

Currently installing 0.7.5. It asked for my workspace etc. And now blocked on this: screenshot

I can't go any further than that. The console shows this line:

And indeed, the issue is that I have no sdk_androidapi_29_google.dex. So disassembling it fails.

Host: Linux Mint 20.1
NodeJS: 12.20.1
Dexcalibur: 0.7.5
Frida: 14.2.10

I closed Dexcalibur and restarted it, and this time it went forward, and is working. If you believe this is just a temporary error, you can just simply close the issue.

Hi,

Red message with "Execute command request : " prefix in output is not an error message but a child process spawned by Dexcalibur. I agree, it is not the better color for such message.

This step, "decompiling SDk image to smali", may be slow so if there is not error printed with stack trace, there is probably not issue.
