I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 and used these installation instructions.

Seems related to the new version of esptool I was able to get things running again by running pip install -Iv esptool==3.3.1 to downgrade esptool to the previous version.

@thebentern Had a nice temp fix for this. Will create a new version as soon as github stops giving me 500 errors.

GitHub Actions is now working again. Just released a new version. Can you try updating?

I also had to install a specific version of esp tool to get this to work on my MacBook Air
