Yes, there are over 20 messages saying it upgraded but not one message saying it got an error and failed during that upgrade attempt.
That's because it didn't fail, at least not in the eyes of the try/except handler.
You can see I tried several times tying to get to the bottom of it, each generating a message.
The issue is that on two different PC's, the upgrade to a sim install failed without reporting an error which left me in the dark.
I don't know what you mean by "the upgrade to a sim install". Could you please elaborate?
You seem unwilling to actually test such an upgrade process and instead want to blame my installation.
I wouldn't say I am unwilling, even in the absence of steb-by-step directions from you as to how to reproduce what it is you are experiencing, I took my own steps to try to duplicate your issue:
I removed the package version I had installed, added the secret buildbot, and installed master for bookworm. I then launched linuxcnc by typing linuxcnc in the terminal. Navigated to Sample Configurations > sim > qtplasmac > qtplasmac_l_metric, and clicked OK. It worked fine with no update messages. I repeated for a RIP installation, it worked fine with no update messages.
The thing is that this issue has been solved by the aforementioned commits, and a sim config never needs to be updated, as it has the necessary changes. So it leads me to the conclusion that something went wrong in the process of going from 2.9.4 to 2.10.
Are you copying the config and trying to make a usable machine out of it? Or are you trying to actually simulate your machine?
If it's the latter, there's a way to simulate your
actual table.
