zome timeout during applet installation

[Connoropolous]

I installed the latest We release manually (via the GH releases download) to Launcher 0.5.1

I created a Group

I tried to install an Applet, such as Notebooks Dweb Viktor

In the end, I do see this:

But then I also don't see it here

Yes, this is unfortunately the same issue as downloading any app from the DevHub currently since the Applets are also stored on the DevHub (just with the we-applet tag instead of the app-store-ready tag). So the download fails :/. I've created a version of We that allows installing applets from the filesystem for this reason but it's not ideal either so I haven't published it yet.

"the same issue as downloading any app from the DevHub " Is the nature of that issue known?

[matthme]

There seem to be issues with gossiping large files in Holochain itself, not the DevHub specifically (at least in the version of Holochain that the DevHub is using). In that sense the nature of the problem is known but I don't know the details about what exactly the issue is.

[Connoropolous]

Ah, ok. I've seen these PRs and now presume those are the ones, which have been raised by DevHub usage https://github.com/holochain/holochain/pull/1542 https://github.com/holochain/holochain/pull/1543

[matthme]

That seems right, yes.

Closing this since it related to an outdated version of We.
