A Docker container is used to produce the Linux build of Arduino IDE. The dependencies of the build are pinned to a specific version in the Dockerfile in order to ensure a stable environment in the images. One such dependency is Git. The version of Git available from the package repository of the Ubuntu 18.04 distro used for the image is too outdated to be used for this purpose. For this reason, a PPA is used as the source for the Git package. Unfortunately the maintainers of the PPA remove the previous package every time they add a package for a newer version of Git. This breaks the version pinned installation of the Git package: 5.515 E: Version '1:2.42.0-0ppa1~ubuntu18.04.1' for 'git' was not found For this reason it is necessary to unpin Git in the Dockerfile. This will cause whichever version is available from the PPA to be installed each time the image is built. Although not ideal for this application, that shouldn't cause any problems in practice since Git has quite a stable and carefully maintained interface.
Arduino IDE 2.x
This repository contains the source code of the Arduino IDE 2.x. If you're looking for the old IDE, go to the repository of the 1.x version.
The Arduino IDE 2.x is a major rewrite, sharing no code with the IDE 1.x. It is based on the Theia IDE framework and built with Electron. The backend operations such as compilation and uploading are offloaded to an arduino-cli instance running in daemon mode. This new IDE was developed with the goal of preserving the same interface and user experience of the previous major version in order to provide a frictionless upgrade.
