Unable to install ZLS 0.11.0 for Zig version 0.11.0

[ftruter]

Can someone please tell me how to install ZLS manually? Doing it through this extension always fails.

It downloads the ZIG tarball and installs it. Then it downloads the ZLS tarball and upon installing it:-

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'status')

That's strange, would you be able to install a modified version of the extension to get a more accurate error message?

Steps:

git clone https://github.com/ziglang/vscode-zig.git --depth 1 --single-branch
git apply patch
npm install
npx vsce package
code --install-extension vscode-zig-0.5.1.vsix

patch:

And if not, you can manually install ZLS by downloading https://zigtools-releases.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/zls/0.11.0/aarch64-macos/zls, making it executable with chmod and setting zig.zls.path to it.
