@mdoary
Thanks for your report.

We will try to replicate.

🈴 Verified bug on Stretch VM:

[  OK  ] DietPi-Software | Unzipping archive
[  OK  ] DietPi-Software | Cleaning download directory
cp: cannot stat 'SickRage-*/*': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove 'SickRage-*': No such file or directory

• Something about the downloaded archive must have changed.

drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 520 Oct 9 03:45 SiCKRAGE-master

• Capitalization of Sickrage repo changed: https://github.com/SiCKRAGE/SiCKRAGE
• Since cases are ignored on web domains/paths, the download does not fail, but the unzipped folder follows repo capitalization.

Fixed for v6.17:

Capitalization of Sickrage repo changed: https://github.com/SiCKRAGE/SiCKRAGE

👍

Been thinking we should rename our repo to DiETPi? 😉 😉 🤣

[Fourdee]

Lots of changes needed in our install, due to pip install --user -U -r /mnt/ssd/dietpi_userdata/sickrage/requirements.txt. Install also takes much longer (5min on NanoPC-T4).

Will send commit once testing passed.

And the reason it takes so long to build? Useless pip does not support multithreading in 2018:

Registration now required?

Re-test:

• Install + setup torrent client + online docs check
• 🈯️ ARMv8
• 🈯️ x86_64

Completed. Resolved for v6.17

[mdoary]

What is the workaround until 6.17?

[Fourdee]

@mdoary

What is the workaround until 6.17?

None currently, due to the vast changes required to install and configure this software. You'll need to wait for v6.17 beta release (ETA few days).

Beware of the problems sickrage is having right now. It may or may not be worth it to maintain this software option in Dietpi.....

Not our concern or agenda. The software stays and Sonarr is also a choice 😉 😉

Ok... so I updated today to beta v6.17.5 which describes this as fixed in the changelog (great addition to see the changelogs from the terminal), but after trying to install Sickrage, I recieved this error. I don't know if it has to do with a bad previous uninstall (Sorry for the weird format, I couldn't find this error in the logs)

@ezekini
Thanks for your report. Indeed with the repo renaming and a new fork, there is quite some switching going on with this: https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/pull/2143

Found existing installation: simplejson 3.10.0
Cannot uninstall 'simplejson'. It is a distutils installed project and thus we cannot
accurately determine which files belong to it which would lead to only a partial
uninstall.
You are using pip version 18.0, however version 18.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.

• Hmm not sure what causes the error (exit code != 0) here. Does it need to uninstall simplejson? php upgrade to 18.1 sound more like a suggestion than a requirement. We need to investigate.

🈯️ Interesting, fresh install on ASUS TB S, working fine + web GUI:

@ezekini

Which SBC device are you getting the error on?

has to do with a bad previous uninstall

Was this a manual uninstall you did yourself, or through dietpi-software?

---

• 🈯️ Uninstall + reinstall test

[ekinig]

Hi @Fourdee. It's an _Odroid C2_. the uninstall/install process was always using dietpi-software

[Fourdee]

@ezekini

Thanks,

Try removing the offending packages:

pip uninstall simplejson pyasn1
#Say yes to both

Then reinstall SiCKRAGE via dietpi-software, see if it passes.

---

🈯️ Confirmed fresh install on C2 is fine, must be limited to users current system.

[ekinig]

pyasn1 went ok, but the other on returned: Cannot uninstall 'simplejson'. It is a distutils installed project and thus we cannot accurately determine which files belong to it which would lead to only a partial uninstall.

[Fourdee]

@ezekini

Feeling the python love 😄

Ok, will take a look tomorrow:

REF:

• https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5247#issuecomment-381550610

More to the point, why is SiCKRAGE (or pip) trying to remove following?

Cannot uninstall 'simplejson'. It is a distutils installed project and thus we cannot
accurately determine which files belong to it which would lead to only a partial
uninstall.

[Fourdee]

@ezekini

Apologies for the delay. Is this still an issue on your system?

As this issue appears to be limited to your current system, and, i'am unable to replicate to assist our end:
My knowledge of Python is minimal at best, so, to avoid unnecessary time wasted at your end, does the issue still occur on a fresh installation of DietPi using our current Beta with the revised SiCKRAGE install?
https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/blob/dev/BRANCH_SYSTEM.md#steps-to-use-the-dietpi-beta-branch

[ekinig]

@Fourdee , I am a bit busy this week, but I will try a fresh installation whenever I have an hour or so. Will get to you with the results.

[Fourdee]

@ezekini

Thanks 👍

As the original issue in this ticket is resolved, i'll mark this as closed.

@ezekini

When you come to do the test, if issues still reoccur, please open a new ticket on our github page.
