[Solved] GoPiGo3 Update was failing

I was unable to successfully run the desktop DI Software Update, and the update command also:

pi@Carl:~ $ sudo curl -kL dexterindustries.com/upgate_gopigo3 | bash

I rebooted, ran ~/Dexter/update_master.sh

To finish any changes, we need to reboot the Pi.
Pi must reboot for changes and updates to take effect.

then I rebooted again and tried the GUI DI Software Update and it ran to UPDATE COMPLETE.

Errors in the log:

I see there’s a typo in this command.

As for the error in the logs about the f string, that may be caused if the version of Python is below 3.6. Is this done on Buster?

Edit: I see you’ve already solved it. What was it?

Less than Python3.6: interesting. I’m using 3.5, supposedly for OpenCV compatibility.

Buster? No - R4R Stretch

What was it? Typo - you spotted - wow! Thanks.
