clarification regarding unity files

[abdelrahman46]

Hi, I was wondering if it's possible to provide more clarification in the wiki for those who would like to use up to date Unity files... a few points:

1. Is it the LTS Linux Android Build Support versions that you use?
2. If yes, which variation do you use, mono or il2cpp?
3. Is there a recommended efficient way to extract the libunity.so and libunity.sym.so files?

Thank you.

Hi @abdelrahman46 , thanks so much for bringing this up. So, I think the current instructions say that we need to download a new version from https://unity.com/releases/editor/archive. And, we can use Unity Hub for that and it might be the LTS Linux Android Build Support, but I don't recall that I was asked to select any version: the Unity Hub automatically asks me to accept before the download process starts. I believe the specific folders they are coming from the structure should be the following. I believe we need to get the .so files from the il2cpp folder inside Variations as shown below.

I hope this clarifies your questions 1 and 2. For 3, I think we can write a script to pick the right files inside the downloaded library, say, if you need to extract the files for many new Unity libraries just like what we did here the first time. Please let me know if you have more questions/comments.

P.S. I have updated the instructions on the Wiki to refer to our conversation here for more details. Thanks again.
