      I have a problem switching my Fairphone to Android 13.

      I followed the manuals on this Fairphone website and this. On the phone I got the message "Bootloader is already unlocked".
      Then I start the script flash_fp5_factory.sh from the package FP5-TT4H-factory from Fairphone.
      I got this message:

      INFO: The procedure will start soon. Please wait...
      INFO: The package type is "user-factory"
      INFO: You are using a Linux distribution.
      ERROR: The 'fastboot' tool is not available.
      ERROR: Please install the tool using your package manager.
      ERROR: Aborting now (press Enter to terminate).
      

      In the shellscript "flash_fp5_factory.command" I see these lines:

      Linux|GNU/Linux)
                  echo "INFO: You are using a Linux distribution."
                  # Find fastboot, abort if not available.
                  FASTBOOT_BIN=$(which fastboot) || {
                      echo -en "$RED"
                      echo "ERROR: The 'fastboot' tool is not available."
                      echo "ERROR: Please install the tool using your package manager."
                      abort_now
                  }
      

      Does that mean that I also have to install the fastboot package on my PC?

        yes sudo apt install fastboot if you use a Debian like distro.
