I have problems activating my personal license on Fedora linux

I’ve just installed Unity on Fedora linux and when trying to activate personal license nothing happens.

When installing package it geve an error:
chmod: cannot access ‘/opt/unityhub/chrome-sandbox’: No such file or directory

And when running unity hub from terminal I get:
ERROR: Ampli is not yet initialized. Have you called ampli.load() on app start?

Same, broken on Fedora 41 with no way to obtain the personal license.
Looks like this is due to openssl1.1 being EOL but used in Hub?

Also it seems it can’t connect to kwallet:

This error originated either by throwing inside of an async function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was not handled with .catch(). The promise rejected with the reason:
Error: Error while decrypting the ciphertext provided to safeStorage.decryptString. Encryption is not available.

What worked for me:

Using the unofficial flatpak for Unity Hub (from flathub), avoiding SSO / Google sign-in, instead using email + pw with OTP. That then grabs my old license, was able to boot up editor on Fedora 41 (Nobara) without issues.

Thanks for this. Was pulling my hair out when I couldn’t get my licence activated.
Workaround works for me.
Also running on Fedora 41.

Thank you for this, shame I was having this issue in November and this post didn’t exist then!
