Steps to reproduce

  1. Download Armbian imager at https://imager.armbian.com/#downloads
  2. Start it up - it requires sudo to write USB drives / SD cards.
  3. Go through the menu - you'll get a flashed image, so this isn't a critical issue!!

Extra context

This might be an issue with the imager - they may need to static-link some libraries.
