I am trying to run the example initialization of Couchbase Lite found at: https://cbl-dart.dev/install/. However, I keep getting this error on running and no one on Stack Overflow seems to have had it before:
Launching libmain.dart on sdk gphone64 x86 64 in debug mode...
Running Gradle task 'assembleDebug'...
Installing native libraries for Couchbase Lite for android
Error in line 124 in file ./tool/install_libraries.sh

I am using Flutter in Android Studio. My code consists of the boilerplate Flutter app given when you make a new Flutter project, with only this change made to my main.dart file:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:cbl_flutter/cbl_flutter.dart';
import 'package:cbl_flutter_ce/cbl_flutter_ce.dart';
Future<void> main() async {
await CouchbaseLiteFlutter.init();
runApp(const MyApp());
}
I have furthermore added C:/Program Files/Git/bin/bash to my PATH variables to no avail, in both the system and user variables sections. As a final comment, I checked line 124 in file ./tool/install_libraries.sh mentioned in the error, also to no avail; it only contains the following (I am not too familiar with .sh files):
curl "$(
_couchbaseLiteCDownloadUrl
"$COUCHBASE_EDITION"
"$COUCHBASE_LITE_C_RELEASE"
"$target"
)"
--silent
--fail
--retry 5
--retry-max-time 30
--output "$couchbaseLiteCArchiveFile"
Any help would be appreciated!

Solved! I was not able to solve my issue with just updating curl, unfortunately. What did work was implementing the fix proposed by this pull request: github pull request. According to the person who posted the pull request:
Implementing the same fix as suggested by the open pull request, which was simply to add two '-k' flags (specifically in lines 125 and 138) in the install_libraries.sh script, eliminated the error for me. More info on what that does here: what does '-k' do. Screenshot of the pull request below:
There’s a bug in curl 8.4
see https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-cpp/pull/2811/files that gives a work-around and a link to the bug. The work-around is to install and use curl 8.5
