Addon Manager

Problem description

1) When I launch Freecad, I got this error in the terminal:

/home/runner/work/FreeCAD-Bundle/FreeCAD-Bundle/conda/linux/AppDir/usr/share/libdrm/amdgpu.ids: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type

the French part means: no file or directory of this type

2) the addon manager blocks when I try to add any addon.

Anything else?

@galou this seems to be airfoil macro related. Do you mind taking a look?

[chennes]

The macro seems to be trying to use Python's text-wrapping character in its list of files, which is not allowed. That list must be a simple, single-line string, no matter how long. The parser is sort of braindead, it doesn't really understand Python, it's just looking for double quotes.

[chennes]

The other error (the real one, in this case) appears to be a problem with the local git installation. @Ericounet are you able to use git on the command line to clone a GitHub repo without any trouble?

[galou]

The __Files__ metadata is correctly defined in https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-macros/blob/master/ObjectCreation/AeroFoil.FCMacro, v. 2.0.3. Which file are you talking about?

I'll close unless @Ericounet confirms an issue.

[luzpaz]

Lets close and if @Ericounet responds with a confirmed issue, they can re-open it.
