I am trying to install ESP-IDF on a freshly created SD-Card (to develop/flash ESP32S3). Following the official setup instructions fail.

I set up the SD Card with "Raspberry Pi Imager.app" (Bullseye 32-bit or Bookworm 32-bit) with ssh and WiFi enabled.

After booting the new card on a Raspberry Pi 4, the following steps from the official ESPRESSIF site: (the first two steps are not part of the official instructions but are necessary to keep the Linux up to date)

 sudo apt update
 sudo apt upgrade
 sudo apt-get install git wget flex bison gperf python3 python3-pip python3-venv cmake ninja-build ccache libffi-dev libssl-dev dfu-util libusb-1.0-0
 mkdir -p ~/esp
 cd ~/esp
 git clone --recursive https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf.git
 cd ~/esp/esp-idf
 ./install.sh esp32,esp32s3
 . $HOME/esp/esp-idf/export.sh

I get:

and cannot progress further. I can't be the only person seeing this but I cannot find any web-based advice. Can anyone help me get past this (please)?
