Hello again everyone, thank you for your time, thank you for your support and thank for being there when people need you!
I am running PIKA OS, a well balanced & excellent KDE Debian based Linux distro, updates were done yesterday.
I had the EA app installed for a while and it worked just fine, installed games with it, all went well, until the EA app suddenly started having issues with updates from EA itself…
Did my best to trouble shoot it, didn’t go too well, kept on asking again & again for the same update and restart every time.
Eventually decided to uninstall the EA app and try to reinstall. Upon reinstall attempt I get the following error message:
Command exited with code 256
Traceback (most recent call last):
