Describe the bug A clear and concise description of what the bug is. Fresh install on ubuntu runs into this error and will not utilize any skills.

Hey there,

I can't seem to replicate this. Can I confirm how you are installing it? git clone https://github.com/mycroftai/mycroft-core?

Did you select dev or master as the branch?

Did you receive a pairing code? Were you able to successfully pair with our backend?

I ran into the same problem I think. I used the converse method and integrated a "stop" if-clause that "deactivates" my skill. The corresponding part looks like this:

if self.voc_match(message.data['utterances'][0], 'Stop'):
            self.bus.emit(
                Message(
                    "skillmanager.deactivate",
                    data={'skill': 'skill-rasa-chat.rasa-assistant'}
                )
            )
            self.stop()
else:
            intent_handlers.converse(skill=self, message=message)

After that, Mycroft returns a series of errors (for all skills it seems):

The strange think is that I use version 21.2.2 on my laptop with a WSL2 Ubuntu...the error indicates something for 21.02. The only think that stops the behavior is a restart.
