arduino-cli: installation error

[pstolarz]

Trying to install the core from arduino-cli causes error as follows:

Error initializing instance: Loading index file: loading json index file /root/.arduino15/package_drazzy.com_index.json: open /root/.arduino15/package_drazzy.com_index.json: no such file or directory

As I see a root-cause of the problem is already known: https://github.com/arduino/arduino-cli/issues/2345

Maybe it's worth to provide alternative name of the file like package_drazzy_com_index.json to make the installation possible?

Seems the bug will be fixed in the next arduino-cli release by https://github.com/arduino/arduino-cli/commit/dc5c56eb1a1250c8d8e05514d0bdebb970ba2658. Closing the issue here.

Yeah but it still won't install because of the other outstanding issue
