Issue
I’ve been trying to figure out the reason causing this error. I followed https://docs.flutter.dev/get-started/install/macos and search other possible solutions in the internet but no luck. A help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Device: Macbook Air M1
OS: BigSur
Tried switching from stable – beta – stable. Setting – re-setting path. Changing permissions
melchorlapinig@Melchors-MacBook-Air development % flutter doctor -v
