I keep accepting all the --android-licenses but flutter doctor doesn't ever notice

[metaleap]

Steps to reproduce

1. No matter how often I run flutter doctor --android-licenses and y through all the licenses, a subsequent flutter doctor still complains that Android licenses not accepted. To resolve this, run: flutter doctor --android-licenses.
2. What am I missing? Android Studio and Flutter and the rest of the android-* pkgs were installed via my Arch-deriv-distro's pacman-like package manager but they're all latest-and-up-to-datest. (Only "Android SDK Command-line Tools (latest)" I had to do non-pkg-wise via the "Settings / Languages & Frameworks / Android SDK / SDK Tools" tab in android-studio.)

Actual results

I keep running flutter doctor --android-licenses and y through all the licenses, yet every time a subsequent flutter doctor still complains that Android licenses not accepted. To resolve this, run: flutter doctor --android-licenses.

Can it be a permission issue since android-sdk is installed in opt/ folder ?

[metaleap]

Great catch, that's the stuff! Just sudoing the --android-licenses once did the trick for my non-su user too. Thanks heaps @LimaneGaya =)
