Update got stuck, restart killed Solus

Regalia776

My updates through Discover somehow failed today and now I cannot start Solus anymore. Everytime I go into the terminal to try sudo eopkg up, it just gives me an error. Any ideas on how to fix this?

EDIT:
My photo apparently didn't come through, but I managed to get into Solus now, but updates are not working. I'm getting this error message:
Error Type: <class 'FileNotFoundError'>

Have you tried eopkg dc

brent

banger is right.
also add for giggles

eopkg rdb
eopkg rmo
eopkg ur

@Regalia776 this basic-level stuff has bailed me out of some jams like this

also delete all that temp stuff
Discover has a few known bugs right now for many users.
terminal installs better for now me thinks.
if that doesn't work remove discover, clean up every last trace of folders, reinstall. maybe

this thread has some great suggestions, try them all.

try sudo eopkg check

nolan

or probably a rollback could help

Or if it still won't work try sudo eopkg it solseek which will give you SolSeek, an alternative to Discover.
I think your experience with Discover further endorses applying system updates after rebooting. On Plasma this can be set in the System Settings program.
