CMake error with ESP-IDF v4.4.1 (MEGH-3685)

[Maldus512]

Hello, I am encountering an error when trying to use esp-rainmaker with ESP-IDF v4.4.1 (git tag), seemingly related to this other issue https://github.com/espressif/esp-rainmaker/issues/133.

cmake failed with exit code 1

The error is present even in the provided examples (temperature_sensor) and it seems to be related to the components/esp_rainmaker/idf_component.yml file that was recently added. If I remove it the project compiles without issues.

@Maldus512 , can you upgrade your idf component manager using pip install --upgrade idf-component-manager and retry?

[Maldus512]

Updating the python package indeed fixed it. Shouldn't it be done when running install.sh?
