Downloader failed!

This is probably due to my mister linux install being old, but how to mitigate should probably be documented.

Thanks for reporting. Could you please verify that running it again displays a more readable error message?

I actually happened to have already seen that message, while running update_all. I've since flashed mr. fusion, though, so can't repro anymore.

/media/fat/Scripts# ./update_all.sh
Launching Update All

invalid syntax (config.py, line 29)

Update All failed!

If your change matches the condition in update_all, then I can confirm it should catch my particular issue, since update_all did give me the warning message.

Thanks for confirming

Thanks for the quick fix!
