Updating on Linux #2

Open tank-trax opened 5 years ago

tank-trax commented 5 years ago

VCVRack asked for an update but it kept failing OS: Debian 9.8

upon opening VCVRack, it indicated that there were updates however the update never reached 100% and would just shut down

trouble shooting steps: I removed the Sculpt-O-Sound folder out of the ~/.Rack/plugins/ location restarted VCVRack and then it would reach 100% but then go to a lower percentage around 86% and then shut down restart did the same thing, so still not a successful update

I noticed that Sculpt-O-Sound.zip file was downloaded to~/.Rack/plugins/ but had not been extracted once extracted VCVRack opened without asking for updates

it appears for some reason the unzip command is not completing successfully

I'm running Rack mainly on OSX and the linux version I'm running is made from source and does not contain a plugin manager. In my plugin there is no zip file involved (I just point the vcvrack people to my repository on github), so I think this has to do with how the plugin manager hands over a plugin. As I can not replicate the situation here I think it is wise to ask the people at vcvrack.com for help.
