VenusOS v3.30 support issue

[Lucifer06]

Trying to install GuiMods v10.15 from clean VenusOS v3.30 Setup was conducted from the GUI. No errors. Restart of the GUI was requested, and executed. Then SetupHelper is still showing GuiMods not installed, and effectively it is not installed in the GUI display Menu. There is an error reported in the logs: no soure file for DcSystemRow.qml

Additional info: SetupHelper is with last versions v7.7

A manual install from the shell reports the same error but the difference is that now PackageManager reports GuiMods to be installed while this is not the case as I don't see the Dimply menu altered.

Working on it.

Good Evening, on trying to update, I get "incomplete file set for v3.30". Do you have any recommendment for a solution?

There is an issue with setuphelper that Kevin is currently working on. I had the same issue which I was able to get around by setting the setuphelper to v6.10 and then installing guimods again. If you do that and still get the fileset error, then switch the GX to the backup firmware and download/install a fresh copy of v3.30 and try again. I saw this once AFTER Kevin had already pushed the guimods update for 3.30. My guess is setuphelper was not able to complete something so a fresh firmware was required to 'reset'.

OK, give SetupHelper v7.8 a try.

I had some rather nasty thread interactions that caused PackageManage to crash while download and installing packages. I did not see those thread interactions on my Raspberry PI test system but did on my Cerbo which has a slower CPU than the PI.

I also found a bug that caused ALL packages to download after PackageManager started. That's fixed also.

The combination of those issues resulted in an incomplete package directory and/or partially installed packages. If you have seen errors like those reported above, try manually downloading and installing those packages after updating SetupHelper to v7.8.

Works perfect - solved! Thank you so much for your work !!!

Good job, I'm back to business :-) Had to clean a bit all the installs before : manually removed all the packages, including SetupHelper, deleted all the Packages from /data and erased dbus /Settings/PackageManager
