Is this tool just broken now or did I miss a step?
Just went to test this in a VM and it works fine on Windows but not Linux.
(This is a Linux issue)

Make sure you installed the requirements.

The requirements are installed. I am using Python 3.9.6. is that ok or does it require a previous version?

I'm having the exact same issue. All requirements are installed and updated.

EDIT: I have fixed this by downgrading protobuf

I keep getting the same error, what version of python or protobuf should I use?

For some reason the compiled protobuf definitions could not work with the newer versions of the module, so I recompiled them with the newest version of protoc and that fixed the issue.
