ARM64 'AttributeError' with debian-tor user

[benlenau]

I have two architectures running:

• ... amd64 runs nyx as root and debian-tor
• ... arm64 runs nyx as root but NOT debian-tor

---

OS: Linux ltr03 6.1.0-17-arm64 #1 SMP Debian 6.1.69-1 (2023-12-30) aarch64 GNU/Linux / Hetzner Ampere VPS

VERSION: nyx version 2.1.0 (released January 12, 2019)

sudo -u debian-tor nyx -s /run/tor/control

returns this error
