Type initializer error for libgit2sharp on Linux

[scovetta]

Here is the error:

root@3d51e1d89ad7:/opt/src/work# oss-download -e pkg:github/neuecc/[email protected]
Error downloading GitHub package: The type initializer for 'LibGit2Sharp.Core.NativeMethods' threw an exception.

Using 0.1.249 link on Ubuntu 20.04.

This seems to be related to libgit2/libgit2sharp#1703.

It looks like libgit2sharp isn't supported on 20.04 and there doesn't appear to be urgency to release support. There are some possible workarounds mentioned in the linked bug and others that I can investigate.

Looks like there is a fixed version of libgit2sharp out now, but when I tried, I'm now getting:

Error downloading GitHub package: failed to mmap. Could not write data: Permission denied failed to mmap. Could not write data: Permission denied|

Removed libgit2sharp dep with #228
