Description
I have been using MissionPlanner for a while, but a few months ago, it suddenly stopped running as usual. Notably, this issue started appearing after upgrading from Ubuntu 22.04 to 24.04, however, even in new virtual machines with each of these versions, the same issue persisted.
I run Ubuntu using VMware Fusion on a MacBook Air M1 (so it uses ARM CPU architecture).
The image below shows the error I get. I tried updating libSkiaSharp as is suggested here but to no avail.

Research direction
Reproduce the startup failure on Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04 in the reported VMware Fusion ARM environment, using the displayed SkiaSharp native-library version error as the starting point. Trace which packaged native libSkiaSharp and SkiaSharp versions are loaded at startup; done means MissionPlanner launches without the incompatibility exception.
