I am configuring Flutter SDK on my Linux Ubuntu 16.4 system. Why am I getting the following error when I run the flutter doctor? I have specified both PATHS for flutter and dart in the .bashrc but I get this error when I run flutter doctor

Safe fix for Mac (Android studio 4.1+) It is in a different directory now, but symlink helps.

Just run in the Terminal this command

ln -s ~/Library/Application\ Support/Google/AndroidStudio4.1/plugins ~/Library/Application\ Support/AndroidStudio4.1
