UnityXR plugin is not supported on Linux

[demonixis]

Hello,

The previous plugin worked on Linux, the new UnityXR one doesn't.

Are you trying to build to linux or use the linux editor? I'm not sure if Unity XR itself has linux support yet.

Hello,
The manifest indicates it's working for windows and unity editor. I think changing the manifest can help.
When you try to build the project is not referenced so it doesn't build.

Same for MacOS

We're working through linux support with unity now. You can try to compile on your own if you like though.
@Hadrien-Estela SteamVR itself no longer supports MacOS. See this post: https://steamcommunity.com/games/250820/announcements/detail/2216278054495230718

Thanks, I'll evaluate the master branch today. You said you're working with Unity on that, does that means the Linux support has issues? What works and what doesn't work? The runtime folder doesn't including Linux in the included platforms. Is it normal that this file wasn't updated?

"includePlatforms": [
        "Editor",
        "WSA",
        "WindowsStandalone32",
        "WindowsStandalone64",
	"LinuxStandalone64"
    ],

Looks like that should be fixed for builds, but the editor doesn't seem to be loading the libXRSDKOpenVR.so at all. I believe 'Editor' should cover linux while in editor.

Just tried making that fix just in case but still getting the same issue. Editor says DllNotFoundException: XRSDKOpenVR.

Are there any updates here? Anyone have any luck loading XRSDKOpenVR in the linux editor or a build?
Just want to hear if it's even possible before I go down the rabbit hole...

I also need help with this issue! Have there been any updates?

@keithbradner, I also continuously get this error when trying to load the sample scene. I am trying to develop an application very quickly. Has anybody fixed this issue yet, and is it viable to use this plug-in? Or should I try to find this older plugin people are talking about, and use that one instead?

Also ran into the "DllNotFoundException: XRSDKOpenVR" issue. Tried the usual mono debugging I can remember to no avail, but can't remember what gotchas Unity adds, and have no idea what extra complexities it adds being a package.
