Fedora 35, Anki 2.1.15 loadAddons fails

UweRitzmann commented 2 years ago

Problem description

I tried to install review-heatmap-v1.0.0-beta.1-anki21.ankiaddon with the following steps

Select menu entry "Extras/Erweiterungen" (Extras/extensions or Extras/Addons)
Clicked "Aus Datei installieren..." (Install from file...)
Selected the previously from github downloaded file review-heatmap-v1.0.0-beta.1-anki21.ankiaddon
Installation seemed to have worked
Selected "Datei/Beenden" (File/Quit)
Restarted Anki. Below given error message came up.

While the error message disappears when starting Anki while holding the shift key, there is no indication that any function from the add-on is working.

Checklist

Please replace the space inside the brackets with an x if the following items apply:

[x] I've restarted Anki to see if it helps
[x] I've verified that I use the latest version of the add-on by redownloading it from AnkiWeb
[ ] I've verified that I use the latest version of Anki by checking at https://apps.ankiweb.net#download
[x] I've tried to disable other add-ons to see if there are any interactions present
[x] My issue disappears when I hold shift while starting Anki.
[x] I've checked if anyone else reported this problem before by looking through the issue reports. I also checked to see if there is a section about known issues in the add-on description, documentation, or README.

I am running Linux Fedora 35 with the official Anki package 2.1.15.

Further remark: I had run "dnf upgrade" before trying the addon to ensure that my Fedora install was up to date.

@UweRitzmann, See this comment, and this pull request. It should be quite straightforward to fix if you're happy to edit a Python file!

Hey Uwe,

Thanks for the report! This is fixed with v1.0.0 which is now available AnkiWeb: https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1771074083.

Unfortunately, however, Anki 2.1.15 is no longer supported by the add-on. Especially in light of all the refactoring efforts Anki has undergone over the past couple of years, it's become almost impossible to support early Anki versions like this in parallel to newly released ones.

If you didn't have a specific reason to go with 2.1.15, I would highly recommend switching to the pre-compiled builds that Anki offers: https://anki.tenderapp.com/kb/anki-ecosystem/third-party-linux-packages-and-source-builds-are-not-supported

An alternative might also be the builds offered via PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/aqt/

Once you've upgraded to either, updating the add-on to v1.0.0 as outlined above should fix the exception.

Hope that helps!
