comitup with newest raspios Bookworm fails (Fix referenced)

[falkyre]

I'm trying to use comitup on the just released RaspiOS Bookworm lite (official release October 10) and I am getting the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Not sure what's changed from Bullseye or how to fix it but I figured I'd let you know. I'm seeing the same error on one of my plain Debian Bookworm VMs as well.

[davesteele]

Yup. Debian 12 (Bookworm) is incompatible with the required python-networkmanager, which is no longer maintained. I'm looking into replacing it.

[falkyre]

That's what I thought. I'm hoping it's not a massive rewrite as your app has become a key bit to my image creation. I'll stick with Bullseye for now and hope you can get things worked out. I'll leave this open in case anyone else wanders this way for the same reason.

maybe this can be a option https://github.com/python-sdbus/python-sdbus-networkmanager

I'm hoping it's not a massive rewrite

It is, but I've been interested in reworking it with asyncio.

[Pupwiz]

any progress? I would like to move some of my portable debian unit to a newer release.
I would like to help but not nearly smart enough to work on this.

[davesteele]

I'm doing a pretty-much full rewrite in async. It will happen, but is probably a couple months out.

[ampledata]

I wouldn't discourage your work to add Async, but in the interim I've patched python-networkmanager to fix this Loopback/32 bug:

Static hostname: zimaboard
Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)
Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-17-amd64
Architecture: x86-64
Hardware Vendor: IceWhale Technology Co.,Ltd.
Hardware Model: ZimaBoard 832
Firmware Version: 5.12

Tested and working with patch networkmanager.
Much appreciated ampledata
systems update to latest bookworm and no issues with it working now

Thanks again

[davesteele]

python3-networkmanager v2.2-3 includes the patch, as well as a general fix for future unknown device types. It is available in the Comitup repository.

The Comitup Image, containing the fix, is now based on the latest release of Pi OS, Bookworm.

Leaving this open since it likely won't make it to Pi OS Bookworm.

[Pupwiz]

Thanks davesteel. noticed during some maintenance on portable server that it did pull the latest deb package and installed. Over writting the patched version without issues.
Thanks again.
