        Okay.
        I can confirm that the problem is the android-tools package of manjaro-community package.
        I uninstalled it, and installed the android-sdk-platform-tools AUR-package.

        Now it works, although I am not shure, if the installer is using the AUR package or if it is using it's own tools?!

        Devices: BQ e4.5, Fairphone 2, Fairphone 3, Lenovo X605F, Pinephone, Moto Z2 Force, OnePlus5T

            @Lakotaubp I expect I need to switch the device to fastboot mode prior to performing the OEM unlock? I will try it tomorrow.

            In theory yes, snaps can be run with Manjaro, but the snap support is still experimental and I do not want a snap error to make my phone a pricy paperweight.

            You can try the appimage it works well.
            I just tried today the snap installer since the aur package was giving me the same error as yours and it worked flawlessly.
