Here’s the output of sudo systemctl status anbox-container-manager.service:

My boost-libs version is 1.74.0-2. So, what do I do here? There is a script to make anbox use a specific libboost_log.so, but I don’t understand how to use it. Here it is. Can anyone explain how to use that? If that doesn’t work, is this problem out of my reach? Do I have to wait for anbox-git to update?
Also has anyone installed anbox using snaps in arch? Because I’m considering doing that.

Note: The dkms modules don’t work on recent kernels (>=5.7) anymore! See Issue 49 on Anbox Github Repo for details.

Since the latest kernel update, I got an error similar on librairy with evolvotron. I deinstalled it and reinstalled it then it worked…

I already compiled a kernel with these options enabled though:

CONFIG_ASHMEM=y 
CONFIG_ANDROID=y
CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC=y
CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDERFS=y
CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_DEVICES="binder,hwbinder,vndbinder"
